Dan-- Thanks for reporting and helping Ubuntu better! As per the policies surrounding stable release updates [1], at this point its not really possible to release a new upstream version of OVS into 12.04. Best bet would be to provide some details of the OVS bug, links to upstream bug reports and commits that fixed the issue and see about possibly back- porting the fix to Precise via an SRU.
