Which examples are causing the segfault? (The smaller one)

Maybe, the lua binding code (i.e. luacairo code itself) is not
releasing or destroying some resources. This should be done using
__gc.

I would compare a minimal faulting luacairo example with its pure C
cairo counterpart, and then look for non-released resources in
luacairo code.

Hope I am clear enough.
Ezequiel.
