Perhaps an even easier solution....
VMWare has released an update to VMWare Workstation 4.5. Upgrade to 4.5.2 build 8848. I simply downloaded the rpm, upgraded and re-ran vmware-config.pl and that compile problem went away. Seems to incorporate some or all of the updates from vmware-any-any-update##.tar.gz.
BTW, I had no problems with VMWare Workstation 4.5.1 build 7568 under FC2 2.6.5-1.358 and now seem to be having success with VMWare Workstation 4.5.2 build 8848 under FC2 2.6.6-1.427.

A question for those who are already running VMWare on Core 2: does it complain about the keyboard layout? When I managed to run vmware on the original kernel of FC2 , it complained about not finding the keyboard layout (probably because it may be looking for XFree86) and then it didnt show anything , but the VM was loaded anyway... Not very usefull if the VM is running windows or if you need to read the boot messages of a linux VM...
