instance of "Parameter" object destroyed immediately

[../inkscape/inkscape/src/extension/param/parameter.h:85]: (error) instance of "Parameter" object destroyed immediately
(revision 10464)

You can't call a constructor from a constructor in C++ (well, you can, but it just creates a temporary object which is destroyed right after the call). See alternative methods to do the same thing from:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/308276/c-call-constructor-from-constructor

Here is the problematic code:
                  Parameter (const gchar * name,
                              const gchar * guitext,
                              const gchar * desc,
                              const Parameter::_scope_t scope,
                              bool gui_hidden,
                              const gchar * gui_tip,
                              Inkscape::Extension::Extension * ext);
                  Parameter (const gchar * name,
                              const gchar * guitext,
                              Inkscape::Extension::Extension * ext) {
                      Parameter(name, guitext, NULL, Parameter::SCOPE_USER, false, NULL, ext); // <-- Problem here
                  };

Most likely a confusion from Java, since ctors calling other ctors is the norm there.
