Guest Additions 4.1.18 breaks Server Manager

I think I have tracked down a connection between Guest Additions 4.1.18 and the failure of Windows Server 2012 rc ServerManager. ServerManager won't run if Guest Additions are installed - it just shows the splash panel, then exits.

Okay, I guess this was old news.
I just installed Guest Additions 4.2 beta and ServerManager now works.

It would be nice if you said what version of VBox you were using, instead of just the GA versions. A log would also have told me.
It is not a good idea IMHO to install GAs which are newer than the VBox VM service software.

4.1.18.78316
I wondered about the compatibility. It's all cut-and-try here.
