it's nothing wrong with lua_pcallk.
you just can't yield from the main thread.

Lua's `thread' is asymmetric, i.e. the so called `collaborative multithreading',
which is actually just a programming model.
it is not true multithreading.

the **asymmetric** nature means we need two different APIs to deal with `thread'.
i.e. the `resume' and 'yield'.
the **asymmetric** also means there must be one and the only `main thread', which
behaves differently from all other threads.

so you must first understand the `threading' model of Lua, then use the right API.
