I don't if your problem is related to that, but IMHO the major source
of crash of Lua in a embedded system is with the stack size.
On our printer firmware, the default stack size for each thread is 4
kB. This proved to be insufficient for threads using the Lua
interpreter: the compiler could eat up to 5kB of stack alone.
Increasing the stack to 8kB solved all problems.
BTW: it is true that Lua 5.2 is supposed to use much less stack? I
have not measured it yet.
