2. VMWare does not compile. It fails in vmnet, tripping over the altered signature to ether_ifattach() in the newly-committed /src/sys/net/if_var.h. If you look at the diff, you'll see that an extra int parameter has been added.

I don't think that either of these are showstoppers, but item #2 is rather troubling to those people who use VMWare heavily--especially when they're beset by those lost souls who push Linux all the time. :-(

I have not yet filed a PR for the VMWare problem. I thought I might try to cook up a patch first, if I can find some time.

Which version of VMWare?

I CVSup'ed RELENG_4 and the ports last night (and rebuilt and installed world and kernels) and I can confirm that I -CAN- build VMWare. The port was updated to vmware2-2.0.2.621 from vmware2-2.0.1.570 and I don't have any troubles building the KLDs.

Can't comment on the GIMP compile though ...
