Re: lua_pushstring during script parsing

["Andreas Falkenhahn" <andreas@...>]

Hi,

I noticed that the line that actually causes the crash is

luaC_checkgc()

which is a macro that calls luaC_collectgarbage() from time
to time. If I comment that line out, it does not crash any more.
But that does not really help me.

If it's not allowed to call lua_pushstring or lua_newtable etc.
during the parser is active, is there any other way to store data
in the registry during script parsing? 

Any help appreciated.
