+VMWare Workstation needs to link precompiled binaries against system
+libraries in order to function. Because Gentoo Hardened uses more secure
+functions of GCC, VMWare Workstation cannot link against it. Because
+VMWare Workstation cannot link, it does not function. In fact, using
+VMWare Workstation at all on Hardened Gentoo led to a hard system reset.
