So as documented in https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs-issues/issues/175 , this really seems to be a bug in glibc and not in openswitch. After installing libc6 and related pkgs at version 2.29-0ubuntu2 (from disco), the issue is resolved for us. The single patch from https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23844 did not fix the issue. So we would either need to make an effort to get the version from disco into bionic-updates or someone would need to locate a set of possible patches and backport them.
