Yeah, I google'd the debian fiasco to get a better understanding.
It's a *huge* screw-up!

I need to convert existing data to our new system, so I am in need of
a lot of GUID's quickly. At least in the interim I have a workaround
via the 'libuuid' unit, otherwise I would be in big trouble.

How can I force my fpc to use the 'random' option, instead of
'.../random/uuid'?  Or must I copy and paste the code from RTL into my
own function?
