VMWare Tools for Linux Guest won't compile with 3.0 kernel

I'd like to upgrade my Linux guest kernel to 3.0, but I can't, because the VMWare tools aren't compatible.  Where can I find a patch for them?

There is no supported guest that has a 3.0 kernel out there yet.  After all, the kernel didn't get released until a week or two ago.  Not even the bleeding edge Fedora releases ship with a 3.0 kernel.

Patience...

Not everyone waits for the release cycle.  All I need is a patch for the drivers; third parties do taht kind of all the time, but they sometimes have other things to do besides support a commercial program...
