"new" is such a non-problem.
"Allocating" new simply doesn't work by default:
undefined reference to `operator new(unsigned long)'
Class level operator new is deal with by "-fcheck-new" so that constructors
don't run if allocation fails, then the pointer is checked as usual.
Placement "new" can be disabled completely if needed.

No, developers will type "new_" and that's basically it.
