+Private items cannot be publicly re-exported.  This error indicates that
+you attempted to `pub use` a type or value that was not itself public.
+
+Here is an example that demonstrates the error:
+
+```
+mod foo {
+    const X: u32 = 1;
+}
+pub use foo::X;
+```
+
+The solution to this problem is to ensure that the items that you are
+re-exporting are themselves marked with `pub`:

+```
+mod foo {
