Lest this be quoted out of context, those segfaults are not a problem with the
Lua interpreter nor with the Lua VM. If anyone's fault, it's the implementation
of the Lua API, but then our philosophy is the same as most other C libraries:
no hand holding, the programmer knows best.

Having said that, you can enable API checks when you build Lua, but these
should be seen as debugging aids only.
