I started writing one such tool but never finished because it was too
complicated to cater for all needs.

What needs did you see? It seems to me that number format conversion
is the main issue.

See this thead: http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2005-06/msg00019.html

I'm considering writing a cross-compiler according to the requirements outlined in http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2005-06/ msg00048.html. It wouldn't be a drop-in replacement for ldump.c, because it would need to take an extra parameter for the cross- compilation info. Probably a "lua_DumpFormat *"...

http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2005-06/msg00083.html mentions that ChunkSpy can do some chunk rewriting. In light of this, is there still any use for a cross-compiler?
