Dear Maintainer,

the man page of uintptr_t(3) indicates
```
uintptr_t is an unsigned integer type [...] capable of storing values in
the range [0, INTPTR_MAX].
```

I believe the documented range is wrong (note the missing U) and should be
````
[0, UINTPTR_MAX]
```

I hope the provided patch helps.

Regards,
