This is the final version of Lua 5.4.0 (rc4).

The main changes in Lua 5.4.0 are listed at

An updated reference manual is included and also available at

To build Lua in a common Unix-like platform, just do
	make
The Makefile will guess your platform using uname and build Lua for it.
We welcome feedback on this, which is new, especially more uname targets
with explicit rules and fixes for existing ones.

We also welcome feedback on the listings output by luac -l -l, because
luac has been rewritten to account for the new VM instructions.

All feedback welcome. Thanks.

Are the tests the same as for RC3?

I get an assertion failure:

***** FILE 'utf8.lua'*****
testing UTF-8 library

My setup is:

Windows-7 SP1 64bit
TDM-GCC 32bit

I had no problem with the same setup with RC3.
