Based on what the documentation says "introduction of ptrint type was a
mistake", shouldn't the PtrInt type be marked as deprecated in FPC 3.0.0
and removed in a later release like 3.0.2 or 3.2.0?

http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/ptrint.html

PtrInt is sometimes used in this case:

TList stores arbitrary Pointers. To store an arbitrary integer you cast
it with PtrInt.

Or PtrUInt. The remark in the docs (which I didn't add, for the record) is specifically about the signed variant.
