Old Synopsis: x11/libSM picks the wrong uuid.h
New Synopsis: [patch] misc/ossp-uuid headers conflicts with system

Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-x11->vd
Responsible-Changed-By: danger
Responsible-Changed-When: Tue May 8 11:24:02 UTC 2012
Responsible-Changed-Why: 
- restore the original synopsis and pass back to vd@

I have hit this bug as well. After a brief research it turns out that
fixing this in libSM itself is not the right thing to do (see the
previous followup and these comments:)

12:55:25 <@jilles> conflicting files in /usr/local/include considered
harmful
13:11:26 <@jilles> DanGer, I think working around it in x11/libSM is
rather fragile
13:11:34 <@kwm> jilles: I agree
13:12:45 <@DanGer> jilles: the submitter proposes to fix it in
ossp-uuid
13:13:15 <@jilles> DanGer, yes, and I think that's the right thing to
do
13:21:48 <@DanGer> jilles: may I assign the bug to vd and include your
comments?
13:23:25 <@kwm> DanGer: go ahead (with my x11 hat)
13:23:54 <@jilles> DanGer, go ahead

Hopefully, this will get resolved after 2 years.
