Previously, libvirt just appended 'script=' onto the QEMU cmd line according to what <script path=''/> contained, letting QEMU execute the script. That was flawed from security POV (you don't want QEMU to be allowed to execute anything), so newer libvirt (as of [1]) executes the script now. But the libvirt code doesn't allow this corner case (of allowing and ignoring an empty script path) whereas apparently the QEMU code does. So the Nova setting of '' used to work by accident, but now does not.
