A bit more digging on this weird one.

I found this patch:

commit 9cf6d39b369f9c22615fc329e307126721125ecd
Author: Yonit Halperin <yhalperi@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Sun Sep 18 10:31:38 2011 +0300

    server,proto: tell the clients to connect to the migration target before migraton starts
    
    (1) send SPICE_MSG_MAIN_MIGRATE_BEGIN upon spice_server_migrate_connect
        (to all the clients that support it)
    (2) wait for SPICE_MSGC_MAIN_MIGRATE_(CONNECTED|CONNECT_ERROR) from all the relevant clients,
        or a timeout, in order to complete client_migrate_info monitor command
    (cherry picked from commit 5560c56ef05c74da5e0e0825dc1f134019593cad branch 0.8;
     Was modified to support the separation of main channel from reds, and multiple clients)
    
    Conflicts:

spice-gtk is still reading the old fields.
But as the marshaller code (spice-server) is ignoring them when
demarshalled (spice-gtk) all fields will be zeroes and client
will copy this "empty" array to the "pubkey" property.
I suppose, as nobody noticed it in 8 years that the relative
code in spice-gtk is not used.
