dofile("luac.out") segfaults

[Marius Kjeldahl <marius@...>]

I've installed lua on my Linux Mandrake 7.2 installation, and most 
things works fine. If I test life.lua for instance, it runs fine. 
However, if I compile life.lua into luac.out with a simple luac 
life.lua, and execute as follows it segfaults:

[marius@localhost test]$ lua -e 'dofile("luac.out")'
Segmentation fault

Using strace, I get some more information, but I'm still not sure what 
the trouble is (see bottom of this mail for more details).

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Marius
