This fixes #932 by adding more specific code to parse
new
expressions, also handlingnew SomeClass
without parenthesis.As it stands, the parsing is not quite JS-like in that it expects an identifier or series of identifiers (combined to a property access) as the target, assuming that anything else (like
new (getSomeCtor())
) can't be constructed anyway in AS.
