I believe it will never understand that until self.depotPaths 
will be initialized.
It looks like it is intitilized from argument list only (or from already saved 
settings). See P4Sync.run(). 
But self.getClientSpec() which is called some time before, does not init neither 
self.depotPaths nor args.

I had fixed this with the following code (new lines marked with +):
        if self.useClientSpec or gitConfig("git-p4.useclientspec") == "true":
+            if self.verbose:
+                print "Get client spec"
            self.getClientSpec()
+            if self.verbose:
+                print "Client Spec Dirs: %s" % self.clientSpecDirs
+            if len(args) == 0:
+                for item in self.clientSpecDirs:
+                      k,v = item
+                      args.append(k)

Unfortunately, this fails on another stage:

>git p4 sync --verbose

Opening pipe: p4 -c MYCLIENT-G files <my paths here appended with ...#head >
p4 returned an error: //MYCLIENT/path/file.c/...#head> - file(s) not in client 
view.

My client spec contains some line to the file:
-//depot/path/... //MYCLIENT/null/...
//depot/path/file.cs //MYCLIENT/path/file.cs

This means that I wish to sync only file.cs into my client and get rid of other 
files in this directory.
BTW, note that file extension is truncated in the log
