I upgraded to linux 4.10.8-1, running in a virtualbox virtual machine, and after rebooting lightdm failed to start. I downgraded to 4.10.6-1 and booted fine.

Welcome to the arch linux forums spirosklouvas please file a bug report against virtualbox-guest-modules-arch asking for it to be rebuilt against linux 4.10.8-1.
Offline
virtualbox-guest-modules-arch 5.1.18-2 is flagged outdated at 2017/04/06.

virtualbox-guest-modules-arch 5.1.18-2 is flagged outdated at 2017/04/06.
Thank you. What to do? I see it is flagged in the repos but it only says flagged, no reason given. How to know when it is updated? The reason I'm asking is I use virtualbox as a test bed when I upgrade my Arch installs before I upgrade my "native", or "bare metal" Arch installs.

virtualbox-guest-modules-arch 5.1.18-2 is flagged outdated at 2017/04/06.
Flag has been removed. As there was no new upstream release it was not out of date.
Edit:
The issue should still exist as the package has not been rebuilt but a bug report has been opened for that https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/53585

Thank you. I will put notes in my arch vm's to keep track of this bug report and wait to upgrade them.

Appears to be fixed after virtualbox-guest-modules-arch 5.1.18-3.
Thanks.

That was pretty fast. Thank you for the update. I will fearlessly upgrade my Arch vm's - tomorrow. It's been a long day.
