Compiling VNCViewer statically [retry with attachment]

[Jacob Hoover]

Jessica,
   the list server automatically removes any attachments.  I haven't been 
following your posts, but if this is something you would like to share it 
would be nice if you could find a place on the web to store/serve it so 
that others may download it.
