I agree that redefining 'new' for Child should work, but I don't think
Child should inherit 'new' from Parent. The arguments to 'new' should be
determined by its own 'initialize' method which takes two arguments.

In the mean time I think I have solved my problem by patching the
'initialize' instance method rather than 'new'. That at least does not
seem to have any side effects.
