​I was using the TurboVNC 1.2.3 native vncviewer.  Testing with the
turbovnc-1.2.91-20150612 RPM java based viewer shows that the resizing does
work.

However, when using the Linux TurboVNC 1.2.91 java vncviewer and either
Oracle jre-6u45, jre-7u76 or jre-8u45, connected to a TurboVNC 1.2 Xvnc, I
quickly found odd behavior with the mouse buttons and text selection in an
xterm.  Sometimes the middle mouse button would start a selection that
followed the mouse movements instead of pasting the previously selected
text, or would past the selection then start a new selection.  Sometimes
the new selection would "automagically" start when the mouse moved into the
viewer window or when a scroll wheel was moved.  Needless to say, that
combination of the java viewer and Xvnc server is not really usable.

Also, the java vncviewer is not usable for me on my laptop without middle
button emulation, so I am depending on the native viewer for that.

There does not appear to be a native Unix viewer in the 1.2.91 source tree,
just some java viewer related stuff.
