It is not enough to tell the compile process to use CC=gcc32 - you have to install that gcc version before. Otherwise it certainly can't work!

So install the kernel-source rpm of .2149 before trying to build the vmware modules. > What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your > running > kernel?

[/usr/src/linux/include] Those messages are for reading! Why didn't you read them? They are very clear for what the process is complaining.
