That is not 3 years old obviously.
Thanks for the info! However:

So the old logs showed old GAs. The log is the defining piece of data for our troubleshooting efforts. And the new logs:

also show the three-year-old GAs still in place. Probably because of:

I am not certain of this:

Sure could be, I'm no Linux guru. But the prerequisites would not require a special step of installing them if they were always what was needed. I have had a fresh Linux VM where the headers reported being already in place when I ran the prerequisites, and another fresh Linux VM where they were not in place and had to be updated. I don't think the devs are whistling Dixie when they write that a special step is required.
In some fashion your GAs are still not being updated. Did you run the prerequisites' command 'uname -r' and explicitly run the install command for the headers reported by 'uname -r'?
Please note fth0's post above:

After running the prerequisites, please use the GAs ISO bundled with your official Virtualbox installation instead of the Linux distro's repositories: use the VM window's Devices menu, "Insert Guest Additions CD Image" to insert the Guest Additions CD image into the VM's CD drive, then run the Linux GAs installer in the VM's CD drive.
To test if GAs actually got installed, search the VM's log for the last occurrence of the words:
Guest Additions information report: Version
As in the quotes above, the words will show the version of GAs running at the time.
Wayland support is newer and will, I surmise, require newer GAs than older, if not completely up-to-date. Once we get up-to-date GAs running, we can start checking the Wayland-boot shared clipboard failure.
