We told you that setting __AllDirActionsPrivate would do that if you
don't provide some external mechanism for inserting descriptors yourself.

You're welcome to try setting it anyway, but if it breaks, you get to
keep both pieces. :)

If you figure out what the issue is and have a patch, great. Otherwise,
I'll just continue saying that it's not recommended.

Good luck,
