PAE kernels are still around. Check out a recent kernel build:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=307992

Or check out VirtualBox's kmod packages themselves:

vs.

http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/updates/16/i386/repoview/kmod-VirtualBox-OSE-PAE.html

It's probably best just to tell your users to download the correct one manually.
