App rejected by App Review due to private API (PrimitiveValue)

[ServicePal]

Our app just got rejected by Apple.

Your app uses or references the following non-public APIs:
primitiveValue
The use of non-public APIs is not permitted on the App Store because it can lead to a poor user experience should these APIs change.

The only place our code refers to PrimitiveValue is for mogenerated code.

• (NSNumber*)primitiveValue;
• (void)setPrimitiveValue:(NSNumber*)value;

No code changed on our side. It has been working fine for 3 years and gone through 20 App approvals so far.

Is this a known issue that other people have run into?

I am not sure what our options are.

Apple has apparently added value to type to their piss-poor private-API-use detector.

Easiest way forward is probably to toss me a Pull Request implementing what I laid out in the last paragraph of this comment: #345 (comment)
