  What I am mostly confused about is why config.guess is failing to

  this line not sufficient?
    suffix = cpuid_avx > cpuid_osxsave ? "noavx" : "";
  
  Or does virtualbox return a broken value on calls to cpuid?

That logic is designed to append "noavx" just to CPUs which support AVX.

If Virtualbox now clears the AVX bit and not just the OSXSAVE bit, then
it is a bug.  I suppose we can work around it, or decide that Virtualbox
has to fix its bugs.

But let's hope the reporter lets us know about what exactly is failing.
