tightvnc viewer client fails with server error

Unknown message type 119 from VNC server

The client window opens and immediately closes. The last line has a numeric message type code that seemingly changes at random.

Tiger vncviewer works as expected.

I believe this is fixed now. Can you test?

Yes, it works.
