This is a known issue.  VMware has not released the file format
specification for VMDK version 3.  At this point the information needed
to implement version 3 support is not publicly available.

If you are aware of open source software which already supports version
3, please let us know!

Fam: Do you have instructions for exporting version 2 images from
VMware?

Stefan
