Not sure when the change was made, but I noticed that Lua 5.2.0 allows the following syntax:

print
(
    'foo'
)

Before, in 5.1, this would have resulted in an exception:

ambiguous syntax (function call x new statement) near '('

Is that change on purpose? Or accidental?

I personally like it as it allows one to indent the function parentheses the only way Nature intended! :P
