Doh! Sorry. How about this:

static void
pguuid_complain(uuid_rc_t rc)
{
char *err = uuid_error(rc);

if (err != NULL)
ereport(ERROR,
(errmsg("OSSP uuid failure: %s", err)));
else
ereport(ERROR,
(errmsg("OSSP uuid failure: error code %d", rc)));
}

Alternatively we could pass the called function name into
pguuid_complain, but I'm not sure it's worth the trouble (what does it
give the user, anyway?)
