My recollection is that the problem relates to calling make_dev() from the
attach routine, and attach from the open call, and of course you can't
open before you make_dev with devfs. Someone needs to restructure the
driver to match some our other pseudo-device drivers where the device is
properly

Replying to myself...
I have since hacked rtc so it works with vmware2 on my -CURRENT system
dated February 4, 200
Is anybody successfully using the port emulators/rtc with vmware2 on
-current?
While the port builds and installs fine, a /dev/rtc device never appears.
ISTM that the rtc device does a make_dev as part of the device open()
rather than at module load and that vmware doesn't work like that.
