I've verified that python 3.8 and 3.9 use the system uuid functions (part of 
libsystem). This means this issue might not be fixable without dropping the use 
of the _uuid extension.

@terrygreeniaus: Can you still reproduce this issue?  If so, does "import 
_uuid" work on your system?


I do have a system with an iBridge interface, but that interface is below the 
active network interface and is never used.   That system is headless, I cannot 
easily try to reproduce the issue by messing with its network interfaces.

I wonder how useful it is to try to fix this issue, I'd personally prefer to 
use uuid4() because that doesn't leak information about the host.
