UUIDs using e2fs library on Linux in 8.4

In the same spirit as the FreeBSD-native UUID generator that was discussed 
here a couple months ago,  I was able to link Postgres 8.4 against the UUID 
generator embedded in the Linux ext2fs toolchain.  My code is posted at

Unlike on FreeBSD,  there isn't a link-conflict issue that requires this;  
it's just Another Way To Do It.
