[vagrant 2.1.2/VBox 5.2.14] Exec error: fork/exec /opt/vagrant/embedded/bin/ruby: argument list too long

Issue Background

VBox version 5.2.14 ==>> updating vagrant from version 2.1.1 to vagrant 2.1.2

Not 100% sure, but it seems that no such the issue with the pair: VBox 5.2.12 + Vagrant 2.1.2!

VAGRANT 2.1.2 with VBox 5.2.14 does the following:

vuser@magdalena:~/projects/vagrant/referent_lava_BatD$ vagrant plugin update

Exec error: fork/exec /opt/vagrant/embedded/bin/ruby: argument list too long

There was an error loading a Vagrantfile. The file being loaded and the error message are shown below.

This is usually caused by a syntax error.

VAGRANT 2.1.1 with VBox 5.2.14 does the following:

vuser@magdalena:~/projects/vagrant/referent_lava_BatD$ vagrant plugin update

Updating installed plugins...

All plugins are up to date.

vagrant 2.1.2 [with VBox 5.2.14] must correctly perform the following command: vagrant plugin update
