The compiler cannot flag "undefined" variables because Lua resolves global names
at run time.

If you want to make sure that your module defines all globals it uses, then
it's simple to look for SETGLOBAL in the listing generated by luac -l and 
try to match those with the ones used in GETGLOBAL, but beware that builtin
functions are global variables...
