Re: what can cause a lua panic?

That looks very useful - I will certainly make use of this.

In fact, I traced the panic down to the culprit by narrowing down the cause of the panic function by function.  In the end it was a corrupt stack; I didn't however find out what was corrupting the stack, only used a lua_settop() to make it healthy again.  I suspect it may be due to coroutines being collected that had not completed, but I'm not sure.

The error message I get from a custom panic handler is 'table index is
