Running Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS with Workstation 12.5.9 installed. Encountered the dreaded error:

/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-modconfig: Relink `/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbsd.so.0' with `/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so.1' for IFUNC symbol `clock_gettime'

Following @iLugo directions exactly, VMware Workstation is now working.

I followed the git clone directions, checked out the workstation-12.5.9 branch, ran make and make install. Don't forget step 4 above!

Once completing this patching, VMware workstation starts and runs perfectly.

Absolutely a life saver. Thanks!
