OK. I'm glad it works with OVS 1.4.0. We are planning to keep OVS scripts in sync with upstream XenServer from now on (mostly, by not installing any scripts over the upstream XenServer versions), so with luck the problem will not recur.
I imagine that there are few users of SR-IOV who install OVS on top of it, since OVS and SR-IOV don't really work together anyhow, so I doubt it's worth backporting. Still, if you want to do so, we'll look over the patches and apply them if they appear safe.
