This is the 11th beta release of LuaJIT 2.0.0.
This release has many bug fixes and lots of new features, e.g.:
* ARM VFP and ARM hard-float EABI (armhf) support (sponsored work).
* PS3 port.
* New optimizations, e.g. allocation sinking (sponsored work).
* Various features from Lua 5.2, e.g. goto and labels.
* Reorganized build system.
A big thank you goes to the (anonymous) corporate sponsors who
have supported some of the major features for this release!

What is LuaJIT?
---------------
LuaJIT is a Just-In-Time (JIT) Compiler for Lua. It's upwards
compatible with standard Lua 5.1 and can significantly boost the
performance of your Lua programs.
LuaJIT is open source software, released under the MIT license.
LuaJIT builds out-of-the-box on most x86 or x64 operating systems
(Linux, Windows, OSX etc.) and can be cross-compiled for embedded
systems based on ARM (Android, iOS), PPC (PS3), PPC/e500 and MIPS CPUs.
Release Planning
----------------
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is the LAST BETA TEST RELEASE of LuaJIT 2.0!
The 2.0 branch is in feature-freeze now. The first LuaJIT 2.0.0
release candidate will follow in ~2 weeks. Please report any problems
you may find with this release AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! Thank you!
