There are two multicast VNC implementations that I'm aware of that have
a permissive license ...

http://www2.in.tum.de/~ziewer/multicastvnc/

http://teleteaching.uni-trier.de/

The latter seems the most active.  Unfortunately it looks like they are
both Java based.

My gut feel is that converting existing Linux VNC applications to use
multicast would not be a huge technical challenge.  I'm not (yet)
volunteering.
