Could you please send me this binary?    It may be a golden binary!

I have tried the latest any-any patch, version 96, and it just
paniced my system, and the resulting MD5 did not match what you
had.   (Page fault in kernel mode during process vmware)

I have confirmed that the vmware any-any patches is really that, it has
all sorts of checks in it for what binary you have.
It has patches for ws and wsg 2.x to 5.x in it....
