This does not seem to compile:

checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... aarch64-buildroot-linux-gnu
configure: error: Unknown architecture.

It seems that VMware tools are rather old (10.3.5) and don't support AArch64.

stable 11.3.x and 12.0.x have arm64 support.
