I updated Xorg in my Arch install during a routine pacman -Syu system update, however it seems to break the window system drivers for the guest additions. Here's what you're met with when attempting to reinstall the guest additions
Warning: unknown version of the X Window System installed. Not installing X Window System drivers.

Do you know what version it updated to? If it was 1.9 then you will need to wait a little while longer for the next release of VBox.

I was able to successfully downgrade X11 and disable the testing repositories from the listing, and all is fine again.
