>Description:
	The Makefile for emulators/vmware2 assumes kernel source files are in /src. Some of us like to keep our top level relatively clean...
>How-To-Repeat:
	rm /src
	cd /usr/ports/emulators/vmware2
	make
>Fix:
	At least one other port uses the SRC_BASE variable to indicate src location. This patch will account for that (and if it's not set
	but the /src symlink is still intact, this shouldn't break it):
