Sorry for the long wait. I am on leave from work at the moment, so I am not using (or trying to) remote desktop.
Unfortunately, I haven't tested the setup more since my last comment.

* I did it more than once, so yes, reproducible.
* steps:
local.machine> ssh -X gateway.machine
gateway.machine> ssh -X remote.machine
remote.machine> vino-preferences
local.machine> ssh -f -L 5903:remote.machine:5900 gateway.machine
local.machine> vncviewer localhost:3

The vncviewer on the local.machine now shows the desktop of the local.machine. But it should show the desktop of the remote.machine.

I will try to test it some more in february.
