[Xastir] Creating Object.

I did another test and here were the results this morning:
 I started the Create object dialog
    picked the first Icon from the primary table
    gave the object the name "new"
    pressed the Create New Object button

Results:
    No object appeared at the location
    The object was in the view own object list
        Call sign: new, #Pack: 2 (I have transmit objects disabled), Pos
Time: blank,Path:APX114,WIDE,WIDE2-2,PHG: blank,Comment: 1.71W
    No object was found when I searched for "new"

When I do the same but put a space into the symbol character the object
creates correctly.

This is different then some of the results I got yesterday so I'm guessing
that these results are somewhat random.
