Ah, good to know.

But one thing: I'd like to ask you to make it clear for your users
that you're using LuaJIT 1.x and not 2.x. Most of the talk on the
Lua mailing list or elsewhere now focuses on 2.x features and
performance. That could be a potential source of confusion for
your users.

Congratulations! He found the first real bug since two years. :-)

That's the correct fix.

I'll release a bug-fixed LuaJIT 1.1.6 in the next days.
