this is the openflow switch. It is using probably some older version
of the net api of mirage. A quick hack in order to make it work and
compile and if you don't want the openflow switch functionality for
now is to remove the Switch line from /lib/openflow/openflow.smlpack.
This I think will skip compilation of this file during compilation. I
will fix it once I find some spare time.
