At least in C++ the types of luaK_opproperties do not match.  The "multiple
declaration" error seems reasonable...  The ISO C++ document states:
[section dcl.array]

  If the constant  expression  is
  omitted,  the type of the identifier of D is "derived-declarator-type-
  list array of unknown bound of T," an  incomplete  object  type.   The
  type  "derived-declarator-type-list  array of N T" is a different type
  from the type "derived-declarator-type-list array of unknown bound  of
  T,"

I don't have ISO C90 documentation, so I'm not sure how it handles this.
