+                <para><filename>sd-id128.h</filename> provides APIs to
+                process and generate 128 bit ID values. The 128 bit ID
+                values processed and generated by these APIs are a
+                generalization of OSF UUIDs as defined by <ulink
+                url="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122">RFC
+                4122</ulink>, though use a simpler string
+                formatting. These functions impose no structure on the
+                used IDs, much unlike OSF UUIDs or Microsoft GUIDs,
+                but are fully compatible with those types of IDs.

+
+                <para>This union type allows accessing the 128 bit ID

+                to avoid endianess issues. This union is intended to

+                call-by-reference) and may be directly manipulated by
+                clients.</para>

+
+                <para><function>sd_id128_to_string()</function>
+                formats a 128 bit ID as character string. It expects
+                the ID and a string array capable of storing 33
+                characters. The ID will be formatted as 32 lowercase
+                hexadecimal digits and be terminated by a NUL
+                byte.</para>
+
+                <para><function>sd_id128_from_string()</function>
+                implements the reverse operation: it takes a 33
+                character array with 32 hexadecimial digits
+                (terminated by NUL) and parses them back into an
+                128 bit ID returned in
+                <parameter>ret</parameter>.</para>
+
+                <para>For more information about the
+                <literal>sd_id128_t</literal> type see

+
+                <para>When formatting a 128 bit ID into a string it is
+                often easier to use a format string for
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>printf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. This
+                is easly done using the

+                <function>SD_ID128_FORMAT_VAL()</function> macros. For
