The config.log would be useful too.
Thomas, it's possible that you're hitting the following bug. I
committed a fix for it to all of our active branches a few minutes
ago (so obviously it isn't in Debian yet):
http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2012-February/014890.html
If that is the problem, then you can work around it simply by
installing the libc6-dev package.
