Very insignificant minor comment to the manual: When checking the manual
for the modest changes to the print() function, I realized that it does
not mention that the arguments printed are separated by TAB. That goes
back at least to 5.1, which is as far back as my interest goes. I guess
that since that behavior has been there at least since 5.1, is not a
"implementation dependent behavior", and could be mentioned in the
manual in a subsentence.

If your platform is a common Unix-like platform, just do
make guess
The Makefile will guess your platform using uname and build Lua for it.
We welcome feedback on this, which is new, especially more uname targets
with explicit rules and fixes for existing ones.
We also welcome feedback on the listings output by luac -l -l, because
luac has been rewritten to account for the new VM instructions.
All feedback welcome. Thanks.
