Initial Comment:

--without-icu \ 
--without-dnet \
--without-x\
--without-gtkmm\
--without-gtk2\

--without-pam \
--with-linuxdir=/lib/modules/2.6.35.14/ \
--prefix=/usr \
LIBS="-ltirpc" \
CFLAGS="-Wno-implicit-function-declaration"

Everything OK.

linux:~/open-vm-tools-8.8.2-590212# make

Using standalone build system.

Why I can't have the modules build? 

/lib/modules/2.6.35.14/ contains linux headers.
Also there is no Makefile.normal under vmsync/. Only Makefile & Makefile.kernel

Message:
It's an LFS based distribution. 
I have full kernel source under /usr/src/linux-2.6.35.14 and its headers
under /lib/modules/2.6.35.14/
Can you be more specific about that kernel-dev package?

Message:
You need an equivalent of kernel-devel package (at least that's what it is
called in Fedora/RHEL). What distribution is this?
