 One other thing I've done. The the one place I do call lua_pcall(), I
made sure the following function is on the stack:
	function stackdump()
	 local stack = {}
	 for i = 1 , 10 do
	 local info = debug.getinfo(i,"Sl")
	 if not info then break end
	 table.insert(stack,string.format(" [%s(%d)]",info.source,info.currentline))
	 end
	 
	 syslog('debug',"stack=%s",table.concat(stack))
	end
 It's enough to pin point the place of the crash.

	embedded in the application)
