package.searchpath

[Dirk Laurie <dpl@...>]

package.searchpath('myprog.lua','.') can't find './myprog.lua'.
package.searchpath('myprog','./?.lua') is needed instead.

This is an unfortunate (and maybe unintended?) consequence of the 
way dots in filenames are treated by package.searchpath.

If it is too late to use a less common character like '%' in the 
beta version of Lua 5.2, a line in the Reference Manual detailing 
this case would be helpful.
