TSClient does not properly detect the exit condition of VNC connections when using VNC viewer version 4.x. Recent version of the viewer output some diagnostic information to the standard error, which are interpreted by TSClient as errors in the connection. Thus it presents the user with a "connection error" dialog, even when the user closed the connection willingly.

I've noticed that VNC viewer exits with error value 1 in spite of whether the connection was closed gracefully or an error occurred, so this might make matters more complex for TSClient.
