Wez, definitely not, this happens with several kinds of VNC viewers, the last two versions from realvnc and another one from a screen grabbing tool from a university here. It even works when I try to log in twice with an empty (and thus wrong) password.
On the server side we have SuSE Linux 8.2 (kernel 2.4.20), XFree86 4.3.0, realvnc viewer 4.0 with a Matrox MGA G400 graphics card.
