Fixed variants to be spec compliant

Open beatgammit opened this issue 12 years ago • 1 comments

This fixes the code to be spec-compliant. Specifically:

  • reserved NCS variant must have bit 7 cleared
  • reserved RFC 4122 must have bit 7 set and bit 6 cleared
  • reserved microsoft must have bits 6 and 7 set and bit 6 cleared

The code happened to be doing exactly the opposite. There might be a more elegant way of doing this though.
