 Oh dear.
 
 Looks like you're not alone:

 I don't have access to an AMD64 system so I didn't know this was a problem.
 Would you mind testing if the i386 package works please?
 
  ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/packages/net/vnc-4.1.2.tbz
  (or your nearest  mirror)
 
 Some Googling suggests that XFree86 4.3, on which VNC is built, has problems
 on AMD64.
 
 Thanks,
