What point are you trying to make by raising that ? It seems

was implied in your post. Please make it explicit.
If you have a public and a private function in the same module,
it's possible to implement the two functions in two separate
object files. The private function must then be available in
the object file to link the program properly.
This is why most languages with modules do have their own linker,
instead of relying on the 70's constraints of C linkers.
