this is how i enable all Lua asserts in Lua 5.0.
change

	#ifndef api_check
	#define api_check(L, o)         /*{ assert(o); }*/
	#endif

in lapi.c to

	#ifndef api_check
	#define api_check(L, o)         { assert(o); }
	#endif

and change MYCFLAGS in lua-5.0/config to

	MYCFLAGS= -O2 -DLUA_USER_H='<assert.h>' -Dlua_assert=assert
