Here is some work I did to add support for uuid types, with help from
Ildus Kurbangaliev and Teodor Sigaev:

https://commitfest.postgresql.org/10/332/

I think it was basically done, but the last patch was never reviewed.
Here is the mailing list thread:

I would love to rebase that to the current code and re-submit. Maybe
this weekend. :-)

Paul
