Comment(by olly):

 OK, the bug in the patch is that you're taking the address of uuid_t in
 various places.

 But uuid_t is an array type, so decays to a pointer, so e.g. memset(&uu,
 0, 16) blats a pointer to uu (plus another 12 random bytes) rather than
 zeroing uu itself...

 I also notice the function prototypes don't actually match those in uuid.h
 (some "const" missing).
