vmware 7.1 and gentoo kernel 3.0.0 x86_64

[jimseg]

I'd like to get vmware 7.1 workstation going on my asus N73SV - x86_64 kernel 3.0.0. Sadly, emerge fails when building the vmware moduleslooking for a kernel configuration option

>>> Emerging (2 of 2) app-emulation/vmware-modules-238.4

* CONFIG_BKL: is not set when it should be.
* Please check to make sure these options are set correctly.
* Failure to do so may cause unexpected problems.

Resolved - Google for layman and use the instructions there to create an ebuild overlay. Installation went flawlessly and VMware 7.1 is fully working for me
