Has anyone installed vmware3 on -current?

I am getting the following error:

/usr/ports/emulators/vmware3/work/vmware-distrib/vmmon-only/freebsd/hostif.c:
In  function `HostIF_InitFP':

I am not sure if it is the SMP error or the integer from pointer error.
but is SMP default in 6.0-Current? is there a way to supress it? I am
using a laptop with single intel chip/no HT, so i don't need it.

thanks,

Brad
