Did you install this yourself, or are you using the built-in OVS in the
Linux kernel (this is the default). If the latter, then this won't work,
as the in-kernel version of OVS does not have tunnel support.

Interesting. Did you run into this in practice? I don't see a call to
delete_flows() that actually specifies a value for priority, but it
certainly seems worth fixing as one could be added in the future. Want to
file a bug and submit a patch?
