Upstream changed the syntax in the config files for this, but there is
supposed to be back-compatability support for the old syntax in there.
You should file a bug about this not working.
Anyway, old syntax was
vnc=1
And one or more of
vnclisten=1
vncunused=1
vncdisplay=4
vncpassword=xxxxx
Now, it uses
vfb = [ 'type=vnc,vncunsed=1,vncdisplay=5,vncpassword=xxxxx' ]
So you may also wish to try updating the configs
