I haven't heard this, in fact I heard the opposite - F15 was working
well in VBox and it was the only virt environment capable of running
Shell. Where are you seeing these reports?

QA does test virtualization - we test each pre-release as both host and
guest - but using Fedora's supported and packaged stack,
qemu/kvm/virt-manager, not VirtualBox, which is not a part of Fedora and
cannot be for policy reasons.
