The very definition of GUID is that they are guaranteed to be unique.
Actually, that's not correct. There is no absolute guarantee that you

I've used option #1 as a more simplistic approach to this type of thing.
To avoid the problem you mentioned, I use an OS semaphore to indicate that

has the only semaphore set. If so, it continues. If not,

Actually, he didn't, or at least not precisely. The year is not quite

a leap year, except when it is divisible by 400, which still makes it a leap
year.
