Just for clarification..
My loader is 'loadstringing' the module and pushing it. One of the modules I tested is 'LuaDoc' and uses
the 'module(...)' function - so, it would probably register himself
properly if ran.
I don't know if require is executing it properly,
for my loader is a JavaFunction from the LuaJava package. I don't know
which mechanism require uses to execute the module compiled and pushed
by the loader - that's my main doubt.
During my debug, the loader is being executed, the module is
properly compiled and pushed into the stack. (L.type(-1) is 'function'
just before exiting the loader)

and returns the result. If the module has no results, 'require' returns
true.
