It's certainly *not* a bug because the manual explicitly says:

"As in most C libraries, the Lua API functions do not check their
 arguments for validity or consistency."

though it does go on to say

"However, you can change this behavior by compiling Lua with a proper
 definition for the macro luai_apicheck, in file luaconf.h."
