I do not understand the semantics of uuid.getnode(). Per the docs
it's supposed to return a hardware address. This would reasonably
make it a UUID version 1.

But then the random fallback should be a 47 bit number as per
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt section 4.5.

The docs for UuidCreateSequential don't say if the random fallback
is a random version 1 UUID.
