Hi,

It appears that every call to dostring in the rings module [1] leaves the debug.traceback function on the ring state's stack, which may accumulate. Is this a problem? Could it eventually explode the stack, or does Lua take care of this?

In any case, it can be resolved by changing

	lua_pop (dst, ret_top-base);
to
	lua_pop (dst, ret_top-base+1);
on line 144, and
	lua_pop (dst, 1); /* pops result from dst state */
to
	lua_pop (dst, 2); /* pops result & debug.traceback from dst state */
on line 150,
of the current release (1.2.1)
