I would like to second this request.

I'll third this request, Having to download all the old X11R6 source just to
compile with the server flag is annoying.

Still hoping - RealVNC 4.1.1 (FC4) seems to work so much better than TightVNC
1.3_alpha7 (Gentoo).  

Any idea when this update might take place?  4.1.1 has been current for a LONG time.

Closing this UPSTREAM, feel free to bug upstream to release source code as
required by GPL. Version in portage is not vulnerable.

The source code has been released.  An ebuild is availabe.  I've built it using
xorg-6.9.0.  This doesn't seem to be an UPSTREAM problem anymore.

The ebuild has been bumped to the tree, so I close this on.  Raúl, I found
several bugs that can mainly be fixed by stabilising version 4.1.2, that is
your task (you volunteered).
