That's a good question.
Let me resurrect my test VM and I'll summarize the issues here in
order to avoid you (or anyone else who picks this up for review) to
waste time on this.

Gimme a day or two and I'll update the spice-ssh-agent branch (just in
order to be sure that it will work) and I'll get back with a detailed
description of the points that were failing for me.

Deal? :-)
