Update to version 11.0.1
The biggest change is the removal of vmxnet from this package. This means you *must* be using the vmx driver included in FreeBSD or your networking will fail after this update. This is a danger for people who are running unsupported versions of FreeBSD but could also affect people who are running custom kernels that have removed vmx from them. This update reduces our patchset by taking advantage of patches submitted upstream. Sponsored by: Panzura

+open-vm-tools 11.0.1 has removed the vmxnet driver. This driver has been
+in tree for quite some time and hopefully everyone is using the in tree
+version, however if you had removed device vmx from your kernel, or are
+running an unsupported version of FreeBSD which didn't have the driver
+included in the base system, updating your open-vm-tools version will
+leave you without networking.
