Ok, for a full fix allowing me to log into unity, we need:

1. spice-protocol and spice updated to 0.12 from debian and upstream respectively. Both quite simple

2. The upstream git commits up to and including 37c97620da959d9214abfc760835aa3031d54daa pushed onto the xserver-xorg-video-qxl package. Later commits cause compilation failures (due to needing at least still-newer spice, and perhaps newer xserver

With that, I can pull up firefox, the dash, spread workspaces, and pull up xterm from the dash.

I have not tested to make sure that qemu-linaro (the source package to kvm-spice) won't have a problem with the newer spice, but I shouldn't expect it to.
