VB hangs on linux guest reboot. -> not reproducible in a new virtual machine

Description
Since the version I don't remember sometimes my Linux guests (was Xubuntu 14, now Manjaro) hang on reboot. Not just guest but the whole VB window where guest lives. When I attempt to close VB's guest window it goes to "Not Responding" state, next close attempt -> VB guest window closes and guest goes to the "Interrupted" state. I think the hang somehow related to video driver coz it happens when the additions try to increase guest resolution. BTW it unrelated to 3D, I tried to disable/enable it without any good result. The hang is very random and happens only on reboot and never on start from the shutdown state. Sometimes it hangs on black screen, sometimes on partially drawn DE screen. Windows' VB process eats one or two CPU cores.
I attached VB log after the hang. The guest is Manjaro (Arch derivative), additions are from recent 5.1 RC, VB itself - last stable 5.0.24.

Oups, sorry, it's actually 5.0.24 additions in the logs, but it doesn't really matter.
I tried to ssh into hanging virtual machine without any success.
journalctl --boot -1 has nothing interesting and dmesg says that journal is actually broken.
So I really don't know how to get more info about the issue.

Please can you describe to us how to reproduce this with a fresh virtual machine, including a description of how you create the fresh machine?

I really doubt it can be reproduced easily, it's more like something specific to my PC configuration 'coz I never had this issue on my netbook (ancient Atom).
There is nothing special in my linuxes, as I said it was with Xubuntu 14 (3.xx kernel, no systemd), now with Manjaro (kernel 4.4, systemd).
I do understand that with all this info (lack of it) it's impossible for you to fix the issue, but may be you can show me the direction how to get more logs, debug info form my system.

Fair enough, but in that case you should be asking on the forums<1> rather than in a bug ticket.
