What C99 features would enhance Lua? Some interesting ones, like complex
numbers and a larger math library are available as external Lua libraries
at http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/ . I think there is even
a patch to make lua_Numbers complex.
What other libraries could be written? What C99 *language* features could
enhance Lua?
