Emitting warnings is not so simple for embedded languages.


Why not make it an error, if the behaviour is undefined when
assigning the index value in a for body?
And if it is not too complex to detect.

Like this code gives the following error:

  local x = 1
  function f() print (x) end

error: cannot access a variable in outer scope;

(in lua 4, I believe this is different in lua 5?)

Just a thought.
