Hi,
I have verified the problem again with VirtualBox 4.2.8 and Kernel
3.2.0-4-486 (Revision 3.2.35-2).
The Installation of Guest Additions with this VirtualBox-Version (I
think  with 4.2.10 also)  and your Kernel Revision 3.2.35-2) works well.
I have also 3D-Grafik and Gnome 3 works well.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

You should restart your guest to make sure the new modules are actually used

Setting up the Window System to use the Guest Additions ...done.
You may need to restart the hal service and the Window System (or just
restart
the guest system) to enable the Guest Additions.

Installing graphics libraries and desktop services components ...done.
Press Return to close this window...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I mean, your Kernel-Revisions newer as 3.2.35-2 have a bug, not
VirtualBox 4.2.x.

Please correct this bug in your Kernel.
