Additional info:
Comment 1 Adam Tkac 2007-10-22 08:53:50 UTC 
I believe problem is in Composite extension because it needs RENDER extension
(so you can't use Composite without RENDER). Could you please try start Xvnc
with '-render -extension Composite'?
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2007-10-22 09:03:53 UTC 
Yes, 'Xvnc -render -extension Composite :5' does not crash.
Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2007-10-22 16:06:37 UTC 
NOTABUG?  But it worked fine in Fedora Core 6 without having to disable Composite.
Comment 4 Adam Tkac 2007-10-23 12:45:37 UTC 
Ok, I will disable Composite extension in next build because it never worked
properly and also main X disable it in Xvfb.
Comment 5 Fedora Update System 2007-10-29 19:06:13 UTC 
vnc-4.1.2-19.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
