I'd do it, but I do not have vmware and have no desire to start. rtc.c already has the make_dev() calls, but they are in the wrong place. They need to be moved from rtc_attach() (called by rtc_open()) to init_module() and replace the cdevsw_add that is there. cdevsw_add and cdevsw_remove should be completely removed. This set of changes will work on 4.x too, so there are no big portability issues. Some of the folks on freebsd-emulation may be able to do it.
