The fact that you mention using VMware Workstation makes me think that 
virtualization is acceptable and that you're doing this for 
testing/experimentation -- and it's the non-open source aspect which is 
problematic.  In which case, you could install Linux (or BSD) and OVS in 
VirtualBox, which has an open source version.  This is a very common way of 
experimenting with OVS on Macs, particularly in combination with Mininet.
