It could be possible to do this in backward compatible way. PyObject_GC_Track() could add the object to the list of new objects (all objects are already linked in bi-linked list, so it would need to just move the object to the specified list), and PyObject_GC_NewVar() could check all new objects and clear the list of new objects (just move the head).

I am not sure it is worth to do such complication.
