For added confusion -- this code crashes:
-------------------------------
struct C { int i; };

typedef int C::*mPtr;
const mPtr m = &C::i;

int main() {}
-------------------------------
whereas it doesn't if either
a) the variable m is not declared constant, or
b) m is declared in the entirely equivalent way
    const int C::*m = &C::i;
