Обсуждение: ossp-uuid missing from one click windows x64 builds

I just installed a copy of PostgreSQL 9.0 on Windows 7 x64 using the one click installer, and found that the uuid-ossp contrib module is missing.

I took a look at the zip archives, and the uuid-ossp files are in the 32 bit build, but not the 64 bit build.

Is this an oversight, or is there some problem with the library on Windows x64?

The underlying uuid-ossp library isn't supported on Win64, so we can't
build the contrib module unfortunately.
