From Reference Manual:

(1)
  lua_newthread

  Creates a new thread, pushes it on the stack, and returns a pointer 
to a lua_State that
  represents this new thread.

(2)
  3.2 - Stack Size

  When you interact with Lua API, you are responsible for ensuring 
consistency. In particular,
  you are responsible for controlling stack overflow. You can use the 
function lua_checkstack
  to grow the stack size.

So you just overflow master's stack.
