  Modified files:
    emulators/vmware-guestd4 Makefile pkg-plist pkg-plist.tools 
    emulators/vmware-guestd4/files vmware-guestd.sh 
  Removed files:
    emulators/vmware-guestd4/files vmware-guest_kmod.sh 
  Log:
  Update to 4.5.1 build 7568, with lots of cleanup.
  
  - USE_RC_SUBR.  Inspired by ports/net/dtcpclient (thanks ume-san).
          Since now, loading kernel modules and/or start vmware-guestd can
          be tweaked via following rc.conf variables:
                  * vmware_guestd_enable (default to YES)
                  * vmware_guest_kmod_enable (default to NO)
          vmware-guest_kmod.sh is removed; both are handled by a single
          shell script, vmware-guestd.sh.
  - Bulid kernel module iff kernel source files are available.
          This check is just a static checking of /usr/src/sys/Makefile.
          It would be even better that '/usr/src' can be changed to other
          place, but I believe that most user puts a source code under /usr/src,
          or other places and set a symlink to there.  If it hits you badly,
          I'm willing to apply your patch to fix(?) it.
  - If this ports is used by ports/emulators/vmware-tools4, install XFree86
    server modules, vmware_drv.o and vmmouse_drv.o.
          The vmware_drv.o is a (virtual) graphic chip driver.  I believe that
          if you have already installed XFree86 4.3.0, it should be the same
          one but compiled on XFree86 4.3.99.2.  I've confirmed that it should
          work with XFree86 4.3.0 server.
  
          The vmmouse_drv.o is a mouse driver, use it instead of default
          mouse driver, mouse_drv.o.  It works, but if my test is correct,
          it doesn't support Emulate3Buttons.  Use with care.
  
          Both drivers are installed to appropriate directory, but renamed
          (append '_VMware' to the filename) to avoid any conflicts to other
          ports (especially ports/x11/XFree86*).
  
  P.S.: Happy version 4.5.1, ACPI is enabled by default for FreeBSD guest OS.
