libuuid is also a requirement since not long ago, so that should also be
made available under mingw32. I tried to compile 'util-linux' package
(the one providing libuuid) from sources under mingw32, but got some
issues. Luckily, we already have some precompiled libuuid binaries we
can use in here:
http://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/windows/cygwin/release/util-linux/libuuid-devel/

So, the steps for libuuid would be:
        $> tar -jxf libuuid-devel-2.17.2-1.tar.bz2
        $> cp -r usr/include/uuid $HOME/w32root/include
        $> cp -r usr/lib/* $HOME/w32root/lib

Could you also add these steps to your hackers guide patch?

Cheers!
