   Well, I think it's not desired if anyone set it to private but at the end , the posts can be viewed by others using RSS reader openly.
   Some minor fixes in a few feed maker may protect it already.
   wp-includes/feed-rss.php
   wp-includes/feed-rss2.php
   wp-includes/feed-atom.php
   wp-includes/feed-rdf.php

   Or is it a wanted feature by others?

   Yes this is a real problem, a glaring error infact? and still unfixed in 2.8.1?

   Rather than editing wp-includes, it's possible to fix like this in functions.php:

   function rss_no_private($q)
   {
   if(is_feed())
   {
   $q = str_replace("OR wp_posts.post_status = 'private'",'',$q);
   }

   return $q;
   }

   add_filter("posts_where", "rss_no_private");
