If you do this, these helper subprograms aren't primitive operations,
are they? In C++, it is possible to have private virtual member
functions. I'm not sure if you really need them in C++ (perhaps for
something RTTI-related things?), and you can probably use class-wide
programming to achieve the same effect in Ada.
