Please excuse the original complaint....The below error was caused by me. I forgot I'd set /tmp to noexec in fstab. Solution was here: http://www.vmware.com/community/thread.jspa?threadID=6538&messageID=47986
---------------------------------------------------

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.9-gentoo-r13/build/include]

Extracting the sources of the vmmon module.

Building the vmmon module.
