[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I'd prefer if we left the bug report still open and eventually fixed this
bug--although util-linux has a huge number of dependents.

The workaround is just removing the store reference from the executable file,
after the fact.
I mean it works because then libuuid.a can't find the socket for uuidd using
the name "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", but that's not the right way :P
