VMware guest GL driver stuck at Opengl 2.1 (is higher possible?)

I'm almost there, I've gotten Opengl 2.1 and GLSL 1.2 to work on my VM, which is great, but I need a newer version of OpenGl and GLSL. I know Mesa supports higher versions, but is it possible to enable the higher versions (Opengl 3.0 and GLSL 1.3 or better) with the VMware guest GL driver? Do I need a newer kernel for the guest? Are there options to compiation? Is there a different way to accomplish this?
I followed the instructions here to get OpenGL working in my VM:

I'm running vmware workstation 10.0.1
