>     Versions: current (nightly)
>  Environment: IA-32 PC, GNU/Linux, Fedora Core 3, kernel 2.6.11-1.14_FC3, JDK 1.4.2_06-b03

> org.apache.axis.components.uuid.FastUUIDGen
> generates (probabilistic) duplicated IDs.
> The definition
> (http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9629399/apdxa.htm#tagcjh_20_02_01)
> claims to increment sequence, but FastUUIDGen uses
> random numbers to update. Because birthday paradox
> (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_paradox),
> this cause relatively (very) high possibility of
> duplication.
> I'll attach fix patch.
