Take a look at the log files.
The paths are not necessarily those
.VirtualBox/VBoxSVC.log* VirtualBox\ VMs/*/Logs/VBox.log*
Obviously I was running gnome-shell (mutter) with wayland, not Xorg. I was able to switch to Xorg in the log-in screen (GDM). Now no crash happens. I will try on Monday with wayland again and try to provide logs. The Windows7 32Bit machine was also constantly crashing on wayland. With xorg, it seems stable till now.
Btw. regarding to https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/50120 I stay with 5.0.24.

This is a neat info. But I don't care about the look of the mouse pointer. I get things done (TM) even with an ugly cursor. On the other hand, wayland brings down gnome-shell on my multihead setup. I have a lenovo x230t and two external monitors. Spontaneous log-outs, all input devices dead etc. Backups for the win! With Xorg no big problems. At least it's Friday.
