Isn't VNC GPL ? Would this make bhyve GPL ? Or is this a cleanroom implementation of VNC ?

VNC is a protocol, of which some implementations are GPL, others not. This looks like a new implementation of the server side.

Will this MFC in time for FreeBSD 11?

It is in -current now. Which will become FreeBSD 11. No need to merge from current, it is in current.

I didn't realize the stable/11 branch hadn't been created yet. Thanks for the clarification!
