Hullo =)

Are there any guarantees made with regard to the validity of pointers inside Lua code? That is, suppose we look at luaV_execute -- is the TProtoFunc* guaranteed to be valid after the luaV_execute call finishes, or are internal pointers (which are derived from lua_Object's) liable to be garbage collected like everything else?

Thanks,
Cyril.
