kernel-headers and kernel-devel packages, both available in sl repos.  The install script will complain that the path to the c header files are wrong if you install the header files midway through the process, even if you put the correct path in (/usr/include i think?).  If this is happening cancel the install and re-run the vmware-install.pl script after installing the correct packages; it should pick up the header files automatically then.
