aef81ecac3 Show an error message and exit when vmware is invoked without Linux procfs
mounted on /compat/linux/proc.

I hope that would reduce FAQ.

d0e24bc7e7 Install ${PREFIX}/bin/vmware as a shell script which sets some
environment variables properly to run VMware, instead of installing it
as a symbolic link to ${PREFIX}/lib/vmware/bin/vmware.

Suggested by:	Frank Mayhar <frank@exit.com>

Add $FreeBSD$ on the top of the Hints.FreeBSD file.

Add a link to the official VMware Product FAQ page.

9225c521c3 - Clean up and minor fixes
- Make portlint satisfy
  - Avoid creating files out of WRKDIR
  - Remove the void directory "patch" (What ever was this?)
  - Adjust whitespace
  - Fix some ungrammatical wordings
  - Modify COMMENT and DESCR
- Drop fakeprocfs support due to the import of Linux procfs to the base system
- Show MESSAGE after installation
- Change maintainer to the -emulation list because:
  - Vladimir seems too busy or unreachable these days
  - This port depends very much on Linux compatibility stuff
- Get it to check if the system has Linux procfs module and stop if not

5c4a9c080e Some VMware port cleanup:
- remove [buggy] dependencies from linuxprocfs port, when this
  port doesn't exist in a system (it's a common situation, because
  linuxprocfs port isn't included in the official port tree).
- remove Makefiles.inc.xxx at cleanup stage
- added message about loading kernel modules
- added warning when vmware runned with not super-user id
