We have users in GCC and LLVM already, and both projects have many downstream
forks. This means that it's going to be difficult to adjust all users as part
of a system glibc update.
GLIBC_PRIVATE is internal to glibc. Please do not depend on these symbols.
They can change or go away at any time. For example, the prototype of
__libc_res_nsearch changed during a security update.
