--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 FreeBSD has a slightly different uuid API with ''at least'' the following
 differences from the e2fsprogs uuid library:

  * uuid.h instead of uuid/uuid.h
  * uuid_create() instead of uuid_generate()

 Ideally we should just use this, but it requires hooking up with configure
 tests, etc.

 Currently users will need to workaround this by installing e2fsprogs-
 libuuid (or just by installing Xapian from the ports tree which does this
 for them).
