I had tried it somewhere along the line, and it didn't work.  I'll try
it again with all the other latest fixes in.

On closer inspection, I see what you did.  You converted the slash to
an underscore.  Ok, see that's what I couldn't find -- I didn't know
that you could do that.  I was doing the first part -- specifying
"lib32_LIBRARIES = lib32/libuuid.a", but I messed up the variable for
_SOURCES.......  Ok, I'm trying it now...

Egads!!  You're a genius!

That's step 2 :) :)
