Actually, I think they are "protected" methods. Those methods that
should not be access by other objects but can be by their child classes.
A truly private method can be written as a sub reference:
my $private_method = sub {
# good stuff goes here
};
Since $private_method can not be access outside of the file, it is
completely private.
