The ports Makefile is using missing a PLIST_SUB+= NOTON5="", and is
incorrectly defining SUB_LIST.  This has the side effect of not being
able to package these files.

Attached is an untested patch to the Makefile.  To apply it:

cd /usr/ports/emulator/open-vm-tools
patch < /path/to/open-vm-tools.patch

Then reinstall the port and create the package.

If this patch works, then use send-pr to submit this change for this port.
