While I can't answer the question about the ambiguity, it is worth noting that this is illegal in lua 4.0.1, too. 


This is illegal in Lua 5:

        t = { 1="hey", 2="ho" }

It must be written like this:

        t = { [1]="hey", [2]="ho" }

The question is why.  I assume there is some ambiguity that is being
addressed here, but I can't see it.
