Hmm, this should definitely be eiter a pass or an XFAIL.  If you want
to let it pass, I'm fine with that decision.

This should either be a PASS or be corrected.  Do you think that it's
more logical to print it as above or should we just elide the private?

I think we have already got logic to do this, so it might be an
outright bug that we don't.
