Hi Chris,

I'm refering to an old thread on the missing FMTID's of
FMTID_SummaryInformation and FMTID_UserDefinedProperties.

I've tracked down clisp as "publicly available source" for these FMTID
to be added to libuuid.a

http://clisp.cvs.sourceforge.net/clisp/clisp/modules/syscalls/calls.c?annotate=1 .197

Added with r1.174

Because FMTID_SummaryInformation and FMTID_UserDefinedProperties are
in some library which are not defined by the cygwin's w32api import
libs.
So it's really a dependency on the w32api version.
I've didn't have the time yet to come up with a configure check
for this, I just patched it away so far. It's not important at all.

http://www.nabble.com/FMTID_UserDefinedProperties-and-FMTID_SummaryInformation-m issing--to9783776.html

=>
"The problem is that no one has supplied the values of these FMTIDs so
they can be included in the libuuid.a import library. These values
need to come from a publicly available source (i.e. not the microsoft
headers, nor extracted from UUID.lib). If you can track down such a
source, I'll gladly add them to libuuid.a."

We (Jack I believe) added now this definition as DEFINE_GUID macros,
but the declaration is not picked up apparently on cygwin.
We can try to convince the w32api maintainer to use clisp as "publicly
available source", so he will add it to libuuid.a, the mingw + cygwin
import lib.

I'll try when I have more time later this week.
Is this the last blocker?
