Just don't do it.

The main reason to serialize data is to store it in some file and later 
retrieve it, possibly with another program.
Even when retrieving a pointer with the same program running as a new instance 
the value (address) of a pointer has no meaning, since that address will not 
be pointing to valid memory.
