Why would you ever need "friend"?
All functions have access to private members if they are declared 
within the same module, so there "friend" is not needed. And if 
you need access from outside the module, why do you declare them 
"private"?

IMHO "friend" is a misconception, that is only there to 
compensate for the lack of modules in C++.
