FreeBSD hosokawa0 7.2-BETA1 FreeBSD 7.2-BETA1 #0: Tue Mar 31 21:01:09 UTC 2009     root@logan.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

>Description:
I'm testing FreeBSD 7.2-BETA1 on VMware ESX server 3.5 and I found that vmware-guestd of emulators/open-vm-tools* hangs up when I selected guest-OS shutdown menu from VMware Infrastructure client.  FreeBSD guest VM can't be shutted down from VMware Infrastructre client because of this problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
Select Guest-OS shutdown from VMware Infrastructure Client.
>Fix:
I found that vmware-guestd stops at Util_IsAbsolutePath (in lib/misc/util_misc.c).  

Please put this patchfile in emulators/open-vm-tools/files.
