I believe it is more of "you better know what you are doing" while using
these functions and structures.  It isn't like the Linux kernel's
MODULE_LICENSE where if you are GPL you gain access to more of the kernel
then if you are not.  There are no legal ramifications of using the
CORE_PRIVATE as I use it quite a bit in my mod_ftpd module on
outoforder.cc
