An initial test indicates that v3.0a might work OK except for
a slowdown by a factor of almost 4 :

htmlp.lua is a restricted HTML to LaTeX converter script I wrote to
evaluate lua. I made no changes to the configs in either case.
The test environment is
Linux version 2.0.30 (gcc version 2.7.2.f.1)
The script and the test material are available at
