Daniel Silverstone spotted this a week or so ago, and posted about it
here: http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2004-07/msg00430.html
He also suggests a patch to fix it in a way that's POSIX compatible. I
don't think I've spotted any comment from the Lua guys about it. (But I
believe Dan's fix is now in the patches for the Debian package.)
