Ah, OK.  It did that with FC6 as a guest, too.  I just told it not to 
compile those modules.  I forget exactly what those modules do but I do 
recall that it was something I could live without.  Main thing I wanted 
from VMware Tools was the higher-resolution SVGA driver, and I was able to 
install that.

I did have to manually diddle with the xorg.conf file a bit, though.
