[LuaJIT] ffi work if not a 'local'

[sduclos <sduclos.cairo@...>]

Hi,

Just to report that LuaJIT-2.0.0 (beta9 & git) work if 'ffi' is not a
'local' variable

The tutorial say:

> local ffi = require("ffi")

but a printf(ffi) return 'nil'


However if 'local' is absent ffi work as advertise:

$  ./luajit

> local ffi = require("ffi")
> print(ffi)
nil
> ffi = require("ffi")
> print(ffi)
table: 0x405faf18

...



No big deal really, but I haven't seen this reported ..


This is beta-9 on Utuntu-11.10 AMD64 and Android

Same behavior using source from git trunk




Thanks,

Sylvain.
