5.2.0 (work 2) and luac

[Gavin Wraith <gavin@...>]

I know that there are some issues with luac in 5.2.0 (work 2)
-- see msg00298 08/01/2010. I have been experimenting with the
command "luac -l -l -p" on some very simple test scripts, with
the following odd results, which I hope may reveal something:

x = print                   -- fails
x = _G.print                -- OK
x = print; x "hello"        -- OK
print "hello"               -- OK

Can anybody explain?
