As before - I object to this change without the description supplying
both a reason (which would better also explain why the current way
of defining uintptr_t is detrimental) and a discussion why it is okay for
us to use __UINTPTR_TYPE__, despite (at least) gcc making this
available only under certain conditions (i.e. it would need to be
confirmed that whatever the conditions they're always met for us).

With this I think it is pretty clear that you would better have split
the original patch the other way around - the uncontroversial one
first, as that one now wouldn't apply without the one here.

Jan
