I feel like we could do better. Either 1) such UUID is not valid (which I think it really isn't [1]) and we should fail when when parsing it or 2) it is valid, but qemu doesn't like it, so we should fixup the UUID before passing it to qemu (and maybe request proper UUID parsing from qemu guys). What do you think? Other that that, the patch look fine.
