In fact, you shouldn't have vmware-config.pl anywhere on a guest unless
you are planning to run a nested guest (which may not even be possible).
If you installed the VMwareWorkstation RPM in your guest, you should
remove it.

Seriously, sloppyness on my part created an erroneous reference to
vmware-config.pl. I should have referenced vmware-config-tools.pl.
