Yes.
I have only tested w/ MacOS X, where explicit use of libuuid is not required.
The .setup file needs to me amended as:
(setup-shared-extension-module 'uuid-lib (extension-version "1.4.1")
compile-options: '(
-L -luuid ;this is the new bit
-scrutinize
-fixnum-arithmetic
I will release a new version that tests for the 'software-version' and extends
the options accordingly. For now if you could try what Mario suggested, get the
source & test w/ the proposed change it would help.
Sorry for the trouble.
