I have for a long time been using tigervnc until a few months ago and
loading the vnc module via xorg.conf with two relevant sections:

Section "Module"
         Load  "vnc"
EndSection

and

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
                Option      "passwordFile" "/opt/Local/etc/vnc/passwd"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

However this results in Xorg.0.log as:

[     8.219] (II) LoadModule: "vnc"
[     8.233] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libvnc.so
[     8.375] (II) Module vnc: vendor="Constantin Kaplinsky"
[     8.375]    compiled for 1.12.3, module version = 1.0.0
[     8.375]    Module class: X.Org Server Extension
[     8.375]    ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 6.0
[     8.375] (EE) module ABI major version (6) doesn't match the server's
version (7)
[     8.375] (II) UnloadModule: "vnc"
[     8.375] (II) Unloading vnc
[     8.377] (EE) Failed to load module "vnc" (module requirement mismatch,
0)

Does this mean that tigervnc is out of date and needs fixing or is it s
problem with X?

Thanks for any advice.
