yeah, it's a bug. You can solve it by adding '$#define tolua_outside' on
your pkg, so it adds that to the output.

As pointed out by Sam Roberts, it's because of the references (and yes, it 
should ignore them since they're const.. another bug aparently). I'm not 
sure if that could increase your stack size tho, wouldn't lua discard the 
extra parameters when the function returns and you only expect one (or 
none)?
