No danger. I assume your main loop is something like:
	lua_dofile(L, filename)
	lua_call(L, "Init")
If so, this will call the last Init defined. If all files loaded contain an
Init function, than this will be called. If you're concerned that perhaps
a file does not contain an Init function but should, you can set Init to
nil before loading the file and test Init before calling it.

This code does nothing at all. A lua_dofile returns to the host program after
the chunk it contains ends.
