I'm working on an NMU for vnc4, so I tried out the proposed patch to
see if it was sufficient to get vnc4server built and running on
ppc64el. I did confirm that the build succeeds but, unfortunately, it
doesn't seem to function. Clients can authenticate, but then are
immediately disconnected w/ an endianness-related error. See below.
As part of this investigation, I reworked the proposed patch to (imo)
fit the existing codebase better, attached.
