It works for me, too.

** Description changed:
The new code to lowercase all UUIDs is breaking NTFS mounts because
those have UPPERcase UUIDs exclusivly. The correct fix would be to make
blkid handle this as it knows what range of values the various UUIDs
have and whether upper/lower casing them is even safe.
@manoj @syscon-hh -- thanks both for testing. I will get this uploaded
and perhaps this time it can actually migrate.
