Except that it does (so far, over several years), so the process must be 
different from your notional one.

To be on the safe side, I would prefer a cleaner way to handle this, but so far 
Quincey's suggestions haven't borne fruit, though I don't properly understand 
why. The problem seems clear enough: how to benignly swallow a method 
invocation to a private method without actually defining the method on the 
receiver.
