I think this is what's happening:

1) The overload mechanism works just fine for functions of different 
protection attributes.
2) When compiling a.d, it checks for overloads in b.d, going definition by 
definition.  It also checks if the calling scope can access the functions.
3) It comes across the private overload first, and throws an error since a.d 
can't access private members of b.d.

I'd say this is a bug, but in the meantime, just define the public overload 
before the private one.  Then DMD comes across that one first when checking 
overloads, and it works.
