Ok, this is a serious bug in Lua 5.1. It's only visible if
sizeof(int)*2 < sizeof(lua_Number). I.e. it probably only affects
16 bit CPUs with lua_Number defined as a double. But the original
assignments depend on a side-effect (full overlap) not guaranteed
by the standard (even on 32/64 bit CPUs).
But the fix bears the question: is union assignment part of C89?
Bye,
 Mike
