maybe we could run a local X server with dummy drivers and use 
libvnc.so to export it via VNC. libvnc.so is part of the Xvnc package 
and has only about a tenth of the size of Xvnc binary.

Another option might be to modularize Xvnc, so that it becomes a set 
of "hardware" driver modules for the modular X server. That way we'd 
save duplicating all the X server code in the Xvnc binary.

We're already using the vncviewer from TightVNC, but the server is 
unusable for us, because it is based on a very old version of XFree86, 
which is not 64bit clean. Also, the "Tight" in the name refers to it's 
bandwith requirements rather than the size of the binaries, so we 
might not gain much by using the
