>Description:

emulators/vmware3 was updated to 3.2.1 because the distfile for 3.2.0 went
"missing".  However, since emulators/vmware-module3 was never fixed to be
compatible with VMware Workstation 3.2.1, emulators/vmware3 is now
nonfunctional.

>How-To-Repeat:

Install emulators/vmware3 from pkgsrc, and try to run it.  Get error about
kernel module version mismatch.  Wonder why no one searched for alternate
distfile locations for 3.2.0 rather than updating to a currently nonworking
version of VMware.

>Fix:

NOTE:  The ibiblio URL in MASTER_SITES below is deliberately specific.
${MASTER_SITE_SUNSITE} is *not* appropriate here because nearly no ibiblio
mirrors carry the distributions/gentoo tree.
