My upgrade to Lua 5.1 wasn't easy at all, BTW...
Why?
It's been a while since I did this. I remember most of it was
behavioral changes. I think there were issues with
lua_dostring()/file() not existing or working the same way as before,
some 'arg' things, table.getn/setn (hundreds of updates for this), the
pairs enforcement on for loops was particularly painful (thousands of
updates for this one), and there were a bunch of modules I use that
didn't fully work under Lua 5.1 yet even though they used the
Compat-5.1 stuff.
If I was ambitious, I'd look through the old changelists for a more
detailed breakdown, but I'm not. :)
