I assume you mean why does Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 *not* use TigerVNC. The answer is that Red Hat Enterprise takes a specific Fedora revision and stabilizes it to enterprise quality standards. That process takes many months or even years to complete, so Red Hat Enterprise does not have the "latest & greatest" code. RHEL 6 is built around Fedora 12 and part of 13, which means they probably froze their package list over a year ago, when TigerVNC was still bleeding edge. RHEL basically draws a line in the sand so that IT organizations can standardize around a "known good" set of packages without having to chase the moving target that is Fedora.
TigerVNC is not an enterprise-hardened code base as of yet. In order for it to become one, it would need to go through a similar process of freezing the features and focusing only on bug fixes and non-disruptive modifications for a period of months or years. This will likely occur with RHEL 7. As far as LDAP auth, it probably already can support this, if you have an LDAP module for PAM.
