The vmware2 port now seems to enable bridging by default, and generate a
kernel message for every ethernet packet sent.  Bridging on by default may
have nasty side effects for multi-interface machines (especially security
side effects).  I haven't read the code (I admit) but I finding the
current behavior both (a) irritating (messages) and (b) worrying
(unpredicted bridging with potential side effects).
