...Looked again at this. It's actually not quite what's needed. It says
to make a symbolic link from:

/usr/src/linux-3.7/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h

to

/usr/src/linux-3.7/include/linux/version.h

only problem is that this first directory doesn't exist in Fedora from
what I can see. the file is actually located in:

/usr/src/kernels/<kernel-version>/include/linux/version.h

Is this a departure in Fedora from the stock kernel 3.7 series? I'll bet
this is really messing with VMware's scripts if it is. Since I am not
running Kernel 3.7 at the moment and don't have time to do so now, we'll
need someone else to have a look at this. I'm sure it's probably an easy
fix.
