Description
I upgraded my host to 4.3.20 and also the additions into all my existing and running 4.3.18 VM's. I didn't see anything special during the upgrade. I noticed the cut/paste with the host not working on a desktop install. I got to the boot.log and noticed the additions failed (modprobe vboxguest failed). I noticed stange characters in voboxadd-install.log at the end of the make statement. Seem to me something went wrong here !

I don't know why this happens but I don't think this is a VirtualBox bug. I assume something is broken with your DKMS installation. Detailed logs from /var/lib/dkms would probably show the problem.
Try to uninstall DKMS and re-install the Additions.
