I am sorry. I thought it was in work2 bar the manual, but it is not. It
will be in the next version. The manual is as above, the implementation
is here:

LUALIB_API int luaL_cpcall (lua_State *L, lua_CFunction f, int nargs,
                            int nresults) {
  nargs++;  /* to include function itself */
  lua_rawgeti(L, LUA_REGISTRYINDEX, LUA_RIDX_CCALL);
  lua_insert(L, -nargs);  /* 'ccall' is real function to be called */
  lua_pushlightuserdata(L, &f);
  lua_insert(L, -nargs);  /* 'f' address is its first argument */
  return lua_pcall(L, nargs, nresults, 0);
}

(Note that LUA_RIDX_CPCALL has been renamed.)
