    Add uuidd daemon to prevent duplicate time-based UUID's
    
    Also store the clock sequence information in a state file in
    /var/lib/misc/uuid-clock so that if the time goes backwards the clock
    sequence counter can get bumped.  This allows us to completely
    correctly generate time-based (version 1) UUID's according to the
    algorithm specified RFC 4122.
