that is a strange one, perhaps you should remind your editor to use  
his or her American dictionary.... http://dictionary.reference.com/ 
search?r=2&q=McGuyver

the verb 'to mcguyver' is actually an ongoing reference in many  
current tv shows and has been used in many references, there are two  
or three online communities that track its use....

I suppose it is cultural jargon though.
