It turns out that as of this version, MM now generates an id on new(). I think this is a great idea (think about building associations–you don’t need to save first with pregenerated ids), but when used with form_for() the generated form id is no longer new_model, but model_<id>. Because the MM object responds to new_record? (alias of new?), form_for() handles the rest of this correctly. If you want to keep the new_record style id in the form, you can manually set :id on the form, or you can just set the id on the object to nil: YourModel.new(:id => nil).
