At least with qemu-kvm 0.14.1 and spice 0.8.2, the server fails to
start if the CA certificate is not specified:

do_spice_init: starting 0.8.2
reds_init_ssl: Could not use ca file
./startkvm: line 17: 10804 Aborted

Also the code in reds_init_ssl suggests that it tries to load the
default cert if one is not specified:

Maybe it is optional in the dev version?

Thanks,
Andrea
