A quick look into the old code of BBDB 2.35 tells me that bbdb-add-new-field was not used at all within BBDB 2.35. That was probably the reason why it got removed. I have to look into what lookout.el is trying to achieve by calling bbdb-add-new-field (plus other functions from BBDB). I expect that these things can be greatly simplified. (I need to look more carefully, but I expect that calling something like bbdb-add-new-field is not at all needed anymore.)
