No, I'm afraid not, although I have had a thorough play myself with a variety
of VNC clients in an attempt to reproduce.
The background here is that we're running a public hosting service where
customers can install and run their own OSes on their own qemu-kvm virtual
machines. I don't even know what VNC client (if any) was connected at the
time. I only see the core dump if the qemu-kvm crashes.
Of course, if the screen width or height is 1, it doesn't really matter what
the value of the mouse position for the click is, so something as simple as
diff --git a/vnc.c b/vnc.c
--- a/vnc.c
+++ b/vnc.c

} else if (vnc_has_feature(vs, VNC_FEATURE_POINTER_TYPE_CHANGE)) {
x -= 0x7FFF;
will fix the symptom: the division by zero. The underlying cause of a 9x1
display surface is a bit mysterious though.
Cheers,
Chris.
