If you don't get this working for some reason, you might think about
http://www.tightvnc.com/, which is the VNC setup I'm using now. It even has a
Java client that you can use to access your system from a browser via a Java
applet. The Xvnc server didn't need an X source tree (comes with a stripped
down one) so has less places to go wrong. As I remember it didn't build 100%
out of the box, but the changes were minor and doable by someone building his
own system.

When the app was made (RealVNC), they may have programmed it against an
earlier version of some libraries, which had the symbol defined that is
causing the error. Later it was maybe removed, and the program never
re-written to take this into account. You see this when functions get
ripped out, or re-named, etc.
I'm no XFree86 or RealVNC programmer, I'm just relating what I've seen
while building sources.

The error probably doesn't sit within either, but *between* them (eg, their
interaction).
HSTH (hope something there helps)
