It is possible that ArchLinux has applied some additional patches into the release packages. There has been some changes that could have affected functionality with openvswitch, but I thought they were all old enough to be included in v2.5. You might want to run a quick test with the current git repository snapshot and if that is showing different behavior, try to find the ArchLinux source package to see what changes it does on top of the upstream release.
