Indeed. It was called blk_new_with_bs() before and I dropped it. :-)

(The difference and the reason why I dropped it was that
blk_new_with_bs() created the BDS, too.)

((And as a side note, this pattern does not come from me dropping
blk_new_with_bs(). As far as I remember, I replaced most places where it
was used by blk_new_open().))

Maybe add a "yet" in there, i.e. "does not handle the passed ctx yet"?
