This is a good idea, especially the test.

The test passes a plain --log-file option and a --log-file option with a
full path.  The first one fails:

    2015-08-21T21:34:19Z|00001|vlog|WARN|failed to open
    /var/log/openvswitch/ovsdb-server.log for logging: No such file or
    directory

so I'd replace it by the one with the full path.

The log message from ovs-vsctl on the disconnection is confusing:

    ovs-vsctl: ssl:127.0.0.1:34766: database connection failed ()

It looks like this improves it, at least to "(Protocol error)":

diff --git a/lib/jsonrpc.c b/lib/jsonrpc.c

The test runs over 10x faster on my system with 1024-bit keys:
