Maybe... though in practice (and with C compatibility), pointers 
to ones where you know the memory management scheme is fine.

So if you declare a local, and get a pointer to it, you're OK. Or 
if you new it, or malloc it, or something like that.

The big problem with a pointer to itself in the constructor or as 
a member is that the struct itself doesn't know where it is going 
or how it was allocated, just the code outside does.
