Hi,

I got an BinaryBuild [compiler error](https://buildkite.com/julialang/yggdrasil/builds/8802#018e0bc8-91e0-4217-8cd8-0013437bf7dc) on Mac (on Mac only) with

```julia
/opt/x86_64-apple-darwin14/x86_64-apple-darwin14/sys-root/usr/include/hfs/hfs_format.h:794:2: error: unknown type name 'uuid_string_t'; did you mean 'io_string_t'?
[23:26:59] uuid_string_t ext_jnl_uuid;

```

tha I I have no idea why it happened now. Similar build ~2 month ago run just fine. Searching [shows](https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49431) that type of error has pop up before and suggests that `the problem is caused by the presence of the file /usr/local/include/uuid/uuid.h` but, again, no idea on how that could be related to current problem.
