Re:  replacing of characters based on position
well, i am using xslt 2.0. i need the position based replacement rather than
regexp.
         The reason is i want reverse back  '0' with -  later at some
point , so thaat i can guarente that same uuid is going to be generated after
reversal.

step1:550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000 to
550e84000e29b041d40a7160446655440000
step2:550e84000e29b041d40a7160446655440000   to
550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000
