I talked to Anthony Liguori (gtk-vnc upstream). Here's the irc log
snippet:

23:03:40 <aliguori> it's a soft dependency btw, but let me look 
23:04:32 <aliguori> so Martin's analysis is wrong
23:04:53 <aliguori> gtkglext is not dead, it recently got a new maintainer, and 
there's been some effort to merge it into gdk proper
23:05:08 <aliguori> that's why we choose it, the expectation is that it's going 
to become a standard feature in gdk
23:05:57 <aliguori> http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119189
23:06:24 <aliguori> anyway, it gives you software scaling support, both vinagre 
and virt-manager support this in their respective source code trees
