LUA_NUM_TYPE=long

["Vincent PENQUERC'H" <vpenquerch@...>]

   Hi,

I compiled Lua with LUA_NUM_TYPE as long (change was made
in the config file).
It compiled, but I have a big bunch of warnings (conversion
between double and long). There are many places in Lua that
show hard coded uses of doubles, mainly (this is where this
annoys me) the return type of the lua_getnumber,
lua_pushnumber, etc functions.
Is the LUA_NUM_TYPE support in the process of being finalized,
or is it obsolete, or does it only apply to Lua's internal
processings ?
