The "new" identifier prevents it from being compiled with a C++ compiler.

That problem was fixed in release 2015d, in a different way. A lot of other things in tzcode prevent it from being compiled with a C++ compiler, e.g., implicit coercion between void * and other pointer types, or defining functions with different exception specifiers from what's in time.h. I'm not sure it's worth the maintenance hassle to munge tzcode until it fits into the intersection of C and C++.
