akonadi is not part of kdelibs
so far, I've been told that akonadiprivate is only named private "to
scare off people who don't know what they are doing", not because it
isn't keeping a stable abi
and I do expect akonadiprivate to use a proper abi stability policy
(change major version of soname on BIC changes between releases)
