That's exactly why I dislike "New", it's like adding "Ex" or "2" to a
function name :-)

Well, before bikeshedding on the C define name, I would prefer to see
if the overall idea of trying to push code for the new C API in the
master branch is a good idea, or if it's too early and the experiment
must continue in a fork.
