Excellent.  Nailed it.  Solved by switching to luaL_loadbuffer() and
passing the filename explicitly (luaL_loadstring() just passed the
source code as the 'name').

Thanks, Peter - also came across your blog while searching for the
solution, good stuff.

So the compiled bytecode contains the "name" passed in at compile time?
