Comment(by jarod):

 (In [23656]) Drop internal and possibly sub-standard get_guid function
 from linux
 firewire code, and replace it with a call to libavc1394's
 rom1394_get_guid.

 May possibly help some firewire cable boxes be more reliably discovered.
 Even if it doesn't, it makes a lot of sense to use the standard library
 function that is available instead of our own implementation.

 Patch from "hp" in ticket #5278.

 Refs #5278. Not sure it actually entirely fixes it though.
