Is the version number being decoded correctly?

According to Wikipedia, there are several variants of encoding UUIDs:

1) Little-endian
2) Big-endian
3) Mixed-endian

To decode the UUID version number, you need to know what encoding variant was 
used: Little-endian, Big-endian or Mixed-endian.

Otherwise you get the wrong answer.
