There seems to be a workaround:

Adding the -xkb option as described in the above page solves the problem
for me.

Status in “x11vnc” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Package: libvncserver0
State: installed
Automatically installed: yes
Version: 0.9.7-2
Priority: optional
Section: libs
Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Uncompressed Size: 455k
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7), libjpeg62, zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4)
Suggests: libvncserver0-dbg (= 0.9.7-2)
Description: API to write one's own vnc server
 LibVNCServer makes writing a VNC server (or more correctly, a program exporting a framebuffer via the Remote Frame Buffer protocol) easy.  It hides the programmer from the tedious task of managing
 clients and compression schemata.
Homepage: http://libvncserver.sourceforge.net

Shift keys do not work when connected to VNC session.  Same client connected to Karmic server works as expected.  I could not find options for the keys...
