section to go first. It acts as though "private:" is right after the
opening brace for the class. In fact the only difference between "struct"
and "class" is whether there was an implied "public:" or "private:" at the
start (Microsoft screwed this up by putting whether struct or class was
used into the name mangling, however).

I agree that the majority of C++ code now ignores this plan and puts the
private section last, so that the "useful" part of the header file is first.
