That isolated line doesn't crash here, no matter how hard I try.

Please recompile LuaJIT with debug info. Enable this line:
  CCDEBUG= -g
and this line (if you have GDB 7.0 or higher) in src/Makefile:
  XCFLAGS+= -DLUAJIT_USE_GDBJIT
Then do 'make clean && make'.

Now run the recompiled luajit executable under GDB:
  gdb --args ./luajit ktest.lua

At the GDB prompt type 'run'. After the crash it should print the
C file + line where the problem is. I need the output of 'bt', too.
And I may need to know a bit more context, like the values of some
local variables in the vicinity of the crash. But we'll have to see.

If it crashes in a location called something like TRACE_31 (only
visible with GDB 7.0), then I need to see the full code of that
particular trace. Assuming the code is deterministic, just rerun
with -jdump=bim,foo.dump, cut out that particular trace from
foo.dump and send it to me please.
