Non-FPU Lua 5.1

[ramsdell@... (John D. Ramsdell)]

I am modifying my Lua 5.1 sources for an environment without a
floating point unit.  I tried to retrieve the relevant patch described
at lua-users.org, but this is what happens:

$ svn co svn://slugak.dyndns.org/public/lua-patches
svn: Can't connect to host 'slugak.dyndns.org': Connection refused

So I simply hacked the sources, which seems to mean one must modify
only lmathlib.c and luaconf.h.  It all seems straightforward with the
exception of changing the macro luai_numpow.  What definition is
appropriate?  Also, why is pow called directly in lmathlib.c, rather
than called via luai_numpow?
