The cpu should be ARM1176JZF-S
as described at hese links:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM11
In the first one I see at the right side the notation armv6k

Going through mirrors I find for example that under:
http://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/18/Everything/arm/os/Packages/s/
there is no spice-xpi

while under
http://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/18/Everything/armhfp/os/Packages/s/
there is
spice-xpi-2.8-1.fc18.armv7hl.rpm

I also found this bugzilla entry:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=613529

that is in state new and so I don't know the progressdone to
officially have in F18 what described in comment#12:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=613529#c12
