Hmph.  I don't know if there's more than one uuid package in the wild,
but I see from
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/uuid/devel/uuid.spec?revision=1.17&view=markup
that the package that's standard in recent Fedora is uuid 1.6.1 from
http://www.ossp.org/pkg/lib/uuid/
and I can attest that Postgres does build against that.
