Hi Mike,

This patch is good to me.  Reviewed-by: Yonghong Zhu <yonghong.zhu@intel.com> 

while during review this patch, I found one update we wound made for " 5. Command line cannot be used to set the PCD value.". It is not related with this topic, but we can create another patch to update this sentence. Thanks.

Best Regards,
Zhu Yonghong

Subject: [ edk2-BuildSpecification PATCH] Add support for Private declarations in a package

https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=465

Process new syntax in the DEC file that specifies information that can only be used by modules within the package. When modules outside the packages attempt to use this content, the EDK II build system must break with an error regarding content not found.

The four sections, Includes, Ppis, Guids and Protocols headers will be the keyword, Private, following the architecture modifier. If Private is not present, then the content is usable by modules outside the package.
