Is it possible to have a member of type auto_ptr in a class?  How would this
work.

auto_ptr is not a type.  It is a template.  It cannot be used as a member
of a class or any other kind of variable.  auto_ptr<int> and auto_ptr<X>
(if X is a type) are types.  You could have either of these as members of
a class, even in a class named X.
