I had removed the headers for the kernel
Reinstalling them (running the 32-bit kernel):
Good news! Module version 4.1.6_Debian for vboxdrv.ko
exactly matches what is already found in kernel 3.1.0-1-amd64.
DKMS will not replace this module.
You may override by specifying --force.

exactly matches what is already found in kernel 3.1.0-1-amd64.

Error! Module version 4.1.6_Debian for vboxpci.ko
is not newer than what is already found in kernel 3.1.0-1-amd64
(4.1.6_Debian).
You may override by specifying --force.
Yesterday when I was in that kernel, it did not load these modules so they may
be built for the wrong architecture. Next time I boot up the 64 bit kernel, I
will try again.
(That pci module fails in all the kernels. I generally only need the vboxdrv
module.)
