Huh.

Well, the Win9x virtual machine I use to run M$ software gets a
lease via DHCP over the bridged interface and I can connect to web
sites using IE under it.

As opposed to simply compiling the module, allowing me to re-install
VMware from portupgrade and thus start the virtual machine.

I'm sorry it doesn't work for you because I was unhappy when it
stopped working too, but I don't see that I'm missing any functionality
at this time.
