I'm not actually sure that ovsdbmonitor still works or is good for
anything.  No one maintains it, but I occasionally get a bug report
saying it doesn't work.  I've been thinking about removing it from OVS
for a while.

Just now, I sent a request for feedback from ovsdbmonitor users to
ovs-discuss:
        http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/discuss/2014-January/012619.html
Let's see whether anyone responds.  If not, I'd prefer to remove it
entirely rather than fix up packaging.

Thanks,

Ben.
