Hi Thomas,
the Customization.pm seems to be from terraform or some other of your tooling 
right?
The build log [1] doesn' tmention that file in any package out of open-vm-tools.

I didn't find the "ifconfig eth0" you refer to in [2] despit an issue
referring to it.

In fact I found several upstream bugs against open-vm-tools about this, but 
they are all concluding with some help/suggestion but there never is a fix as 
the problem lies in vSphere Customization scripts and not open-vm-tools.
See [4] and [5] for these.

That said it is interesting that you say it only appears with the newer version 
of open-vm-tools.
Do the network devices have "eth0" names with the older version of the tools?

I'm subscribing Oliver who is active on open-vm-tools upstream to share
his thoughts as well.
