I don't know what the -d switch is for, but AFAIK vmware-config-tools.pl is an interactive script which waits for user input. This could be the reason for the timeout you're having. This doesn't answer your question, but I use openvmtools¹ instead because I found vmware-tools to be much of a pain to maintain (with or without puppet). I just pushed onto github[²] the module I use for debian and redhat. Maybe you'll find it useful.
