I take that back. It can find it in the ossp subdirectiry, as
RhodiumToad said, but it can't compile it:

checking ossp/uuid.h usability... no
checking ossp/uuid.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: ossp/uuid.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: ossp/uuid.h:     check for missing prerequisite
headers?
configure: WARNING: ossp/uuid.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: ossp/uuid.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be
Compiled"
configure: WARNING: ossp/uuid.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's
result
configure: WARNING: ossp/uuid.h: in the future, the compiler will take
precedence
configure: WARNING:     ## ---------------------------------------- ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ---------------------------------------- ##
checking for ossp/uuid.h... yes

Best,
