Hi all,

I wrote a Lua wrapper for XOSD, an onscreen display library for X.
The README and included test suite document its usage.

XOSD:      http://ignavus.net/software.html
lua-xosd:  http://silentbicycle.com/projects/lua-xosd-0.3.tar.gz

I have a question about linking for libraries, though. If I
require "xosd", but never use it for anything, Lua dumps core as
the script completes. It works fine during normal operation,
however. Am I building the shared library wrong? I haven't had
this issue while wrapping other C libraries. (While this may be
an issue with XOSD, I haven't been able to duplicate it in C.)
Any thoughts? Running the included test2.lua segfaults for me.

Thanks,
Scott
