It seems possible that "restart" or a quick application of "stop" then "start" could kill ovs-xapi-sync without starting it again, if ovs-xapi-sync takes a little while to die, long enough for the next instance of it to see that its pidfile is still open and locked.
I hope that this fixes some odd races that we've noticed in the "restart" command.
