Comment (by captain.crash):

 Replying to [comment:7 dlh]:
 > I'm having a little trouble following how [41890] might have caused a
 change in behavior like the one described here. If I revert [41890] from
 my test environment, for example, I still don't see private posts in the
 widget, but perhaps I'm testing incorrectly.

 I'm terribly ashamed, but I cannot reproduce the issue either.

 I was sure I was testing thoroughly. I did that now again - I hope (with
 clean installs back to 4.0) - and can confirm that the Recent Posts widget
 probably never showed private posts in the first place. I'm still sure I
 did not make this up, but I cannot reproduce my earlier tests. @audrasjb
 probably only tested that private posts do not appear now, but not whether
 or not they did prior to said changeset.

 So, thanks for chiming in and sorry again. I guess this ticket's for the
 wastebin.
