given UUID with guid_equal().

Hi,

I don't have a user for these helpers, but since they are pretty
trivial, I figured that might as well propose them in any case.
Though, I think there was somebody proposing of doing the same thing
that these helpers do at one point, but just the hard way in the
drivers, right Andy?

thanks,
