"We" being Isilon haven't used these.

These were very much internal only, committed as such and not
documented. I don't think we need to document it anywhere. Either
someone hits an error with it due to abuse and fixes it or they don't
hit an error on it. It would just be noise in release notes, like
removing any other private API (like static functions).
