Correct. When you built and installed openvswitch, it apparently was
installed in some alternate place (/usr/local?) that isn't in the PATH
supplied to libvirtd when it starts.

The simplest solution would be to find ovs-vsctl, and make a symlink to
it from /usr/bin/ovs-vsctl.

BTW, since you're apparently already building upstream libvirt from
source, I'll repeat Eric's request to try libvirt-1.0.5 or the
libvirt-1.0.6-rc2 instead of 1.0.0; many things have been accomplished
in the last 6 months.
