Ticket 169: return representation too 'C' for string().
For string() and such, the return format is a char * ... this means the caller has to free() some allocated memory (kind of ugly).
A better solution would be to return an std::string. Though this may break some existing user's compatibility, it will make uuid much nicer to use, rather than:
char *sid = id.string();
printf("%s\n", sid);
free(sid);
I could just do:
printf("%s\n", id.string().c_str());
