I've committed code to CVS to support the UUID type. This is now the
first time there's a real distinction between the 1.4 and 1.5 JDK builds.
Previously I've been doing all JDBC3 releases with a 1.4 JDK which will
not support java.util.UUID. I don't plan on publishing the separate
JDBC3g (g stands for the generics JDK1.5 needs) build that is generated
from a 1.5 build because we already have enough release versions. So
unless there are serious objections, if people want UUID support they'll
need to use the JDBC 4 release or build from source.
