Also, can we rename 'new' to new_he? In the past I used 'self' and
Thomas rightly told me that 'self' didn't convey any info, likewise for
'new' (that is even a keyword in C++ and may confuse some syntax
highligting, etc).

yup, if some place doesn't, we need to fix it, silently trowing away
stuff is not good. At the very least count the number of failures and
inform the user somewhere on the screen.

That needs to be fixed too, then.
