   A sufficient solution is to define _POSIX_SOURCE=1

   Apple's unistd.h has the following:

     #ifndef _POSIX_C_SOURCE
     #ifndef _UUID_T
     #define _UUID_T
     typedef __darwin_uuid_t         uuid_t;
     #endif /* _UUID_T */
     #endif /* _POSIX_C_SOURCE */

   I got the C library to compile by setting _POSIX_C_SOURCE, but not the Perl library. It seems that perl.h loads unistd.h, but if I define _POSIX_C_SOURCE before uuid.xs includes perl.h, I get all kinds of errors.

   Unfortunately, I think that the only solution is to give uuid_t another name. Maybe it can just be done where uuid_t is already defined elsewhere, and then dependent libraries would have to make the same test?
