Just now, I found table does't have the __gc event, only userdata has. But I don't know why.
It's so those that don't understand the consequences of the garbage collector don't get their fingers burnt, at the expense of usability for those who do.
You could always patch the Lua source so __gc does get called for tables - that's what I did.
