  #598542 Open VM Tools FTBS on Maverick 2.6.35
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598542


This proposal adds support to Maverick kernels. There is a newer upstream available, which Debian has pushed to their repos. I would've pushed that new version in this branch, with the fixes for the Maverick kernel (including the adjusted patches), but I don't know what other changes need to be made for the newer version.  So I guess I want to fix the old thing that's broken, instead of pushing the new version, that might cause more problems.

Also, I'm sorry, I know this branch as been disappearing and appearing again, but I'm trying to get this proposal as perfect as possible.  I'm still getting a hold of this.
