I'm quite new to Lua, but I've followed this list for some time
now. One thing I haven't been able to figure out, though; does anyone
know which "original rewrite to use lua_State" the above quote refers
to?

(I know that Lua 5.0w0 also gives me all the thread/task/coroutine
meta-mechanisms I might want, but I'd rather stick to 4.0 for now.)
