I use vnc.so module extensively on the daily basis to control remote 
headless servers, including the latest development build (4.16.07). No 
problem so far, with the exception of the double mouse pointers when 
viewing a XEN guess  OS (domU) within a XEN host (dom0) that is within a 
remote viewer  (sort of like viewing X within an X within an X). Of 
course, the workaround and better solution to the above problem would be 
to enable vnc server within domU and view from remote directly.
