I think the uuid side of this is making this way too complicated. I'm

There is much more value in making the ssl option work automatically.
So I would welcome a patch that just makes -Dssl=auto work smoothly,
perhaps using the "trick" that Andres described.
I tried to implement what we did for ssl to uuid as well, do you have
any comments?
For the uuid option, we have three different choices. What should be
the search order and why?
Docs [1] say that: OSSP uuid library is not well maintained, and is
becoming increasingly difficult to port to newer platforms; so we can
put 'uuid-ossp' to the end. Between 'uuid-e2fs' and 'uuid-bsd', I
believe 'uuid-e2fs' is used more often than 'uuid-bsd'.
Hence, they can be ordered as 'uuid-e2fs', 'uuid-bsd', 'uuid-ossp'.
Does that make sense?
I think that's fair.
