BAD_POOL_CALLER BSOD and VirtualBox

On my work laptop, I was plagued by a BAD_POOL_CALLER BSOD after reactivating the machine from standby and I couldn’t really get to the root of the problem. The laptop runs Vista Business, 32bit, SP1.
Thanks to someone at Dell Business Support, I found the reason (which is still not really well-documented at Google): It can be caused by a bug in old versions of VirtualBox, as documented in this bug report.

A good fix for that BAD_POOL_CALLER bluescreen is simply downloading and installing the latest VirtualBox version, which at the time of writing is VirtualBox 2.1.4.
