I have made a new version, and made a web page for it.
http://granicus.if.org/~nw/uuid/
Given the statement that it won't be accepted for contrib or core
unless it compiles on windows, I guess I won't really have anything
further to say on the topic. I don't have any way to compile on windows,
so it's not an obstacle I can readily address.
Comments for improvements are welcome. Other sorts of comments on the code are
welcome as well. I hope someone else will find it useful.
I won't post any further update/release notices to the list, they're
not really on topic, I posted these two so that folks could look at the code
i was proposing if they wished.
