Which version of Julia are you running? My guess is that you are
referring to the development version documentation [1], when what you
really want is the 0.3.x release documentation [2]

ERROR: UInt not defined
in process_options at ./client.jl:213
in _start at ./client.jl:354
in _start_3B_1729 at ~/git/julia0.3/usr/bin/../lib/julia/sys.so
> julia0.4 -e 'Uint'
> julia0.3 -e 'Uint'
As seen above, there has been some breaking changes introduced in the
development branch.
