Try updating your version of uml_utilities. I, for now, refuse to believe we 
were so stupid to forget fixing uml_moo (but I also consider this 
possibility).

Maybe ubd0= the cowed one, ubd1 = the new one, copy the content. It's not the 
same thing, but it should do the job. I don't recommend this because I think 
that there is a simpler solution, i.e. updating the utils.

I think it's impossible, even because the V2 format has bugs, so it was 
changed (not because of "let's make it nicer" reason, but because of "let's 
make it work" reasons).
