I really need to have OpenVPN so here is the workaround I came up.
-=====-
NOTE: No variation of this procedure that was attempted using "su" will work.
I suspect it is su that is causing my issue but I haven't got around to testing 
that yet.
-=====-

1. Install "SSHDroid"
2. Install "Terminal Emulator"
3. Start SSHDroid
4. Launch Terminal
5. Type the following:
ssh root@localhost "cd /sdcard/openvpn ; /system/xbin/openvpn vpnconf.ovpn"

The result is a successful connection:

I upgraded my installation of Superuser(su) to the latest version from the 
developer website. I now have to open a new ticket for Superuser because it 
"forgets" that su has been granted. 
This reported problem is corrected by the update of Superuser(su) to launch 
OpenVPN. 
Please close this submission as corrected by using latest version of 
Superuser(su).
