Can you give me a short example of how NoPtr would even need to detect that
to work correctly? I suspect that if you end up with cyclic object pool you
are using NoPtr incorrectly (just like passing a pointer to an auto variable
to a shared_ptr is incorrect use), but maybe an example will show me to be
wrong.
