Can select * usage ever be justified?

I've always preached to my developers that SELECT * is evil and should be avoided like the plague.

Are there any cases where it can be justified?

I'm not talking about COUNT(*) - which most optimizers can figure out.

Edit

I'm talking about production code.

And one great example I saw of this bad practice was a legacy asp application that used select * in a stored procedure, and used ADO to loop through the returned records, but got the columns by index. You can imagine what happened when a new field was added somewhere other than the end of the field list.
