Interesting.  I did a fresh install of VMware and applied the
vmware-any-any-update84 patch (and copied /dev/vm* to /etc/udev).  All
links are there (although the rc5.d and rc6.d links are absolute and the
others are relative).  This doesn't seem to affect the behavior.

The problem occurs whether shutting down (rc0) or rebooting (rc6).

Since this thread started, I've noticed that haldaemon seems to crash on
occasion (leaving no trace that I can see).  I'm wondering if that has
something to do with this.
