Steve Gilbert pointed out that bringing up the Sunit test UI and running the tests kicked back that the UUIDPrimitives failed on his platform.
Now it seems that for some version of windows NT microsoft choose to increment the version number information. However I can't find a document that explains that, and or what exactly is different about the UUID they are generating.
So
a) If people could try the test and report to me if it fails, that would be good. b) If some microsoft aware developer could point to the doc that details the UUID version number field that would be good too.
