My guess: you're running on a system where current-time always returns
zero micro-seconds (Windows?); try with M-: (current-time). In the
ideal case the output in the echo area looks like (19038 12367 114552),
but yours is probably like (19038 12367 0).
Since you don't have the uuidgen utility installed, the function
`org-id-time-to-b36' is being called to generate the id, but since it's
called twice in the same second and depends on current-time, it returns
the same value twice.
So someone should make `org-id-time-to-b36' return unique values in this
case. (Append a random number?)
