Lua 5.2 will accept embedded \0s in patterns.
Two details about your patch:
- It seems simpler to keep the pattern end address in structure
MatchState, instead of adding it as an extra parameter to several
functions.
- I think you forgot to change matchbalance. (My bad: its code uses
0 instead of '\0'...)
