"x" is not deleted and reallocated, check the OP_FORLOOP implementation 
in lvm.c. :-) What Lua version are you using? Lua 5.0.2 shows no "(for 
index)" local while debugging, and shows the loop index does show up as 
a local in the line of the for statement. Same for Lua 5.0. The Lua 
compiler does not even generate "(for index)" as a local.
