Lua 5.1.5 has been frozen and is now available at
	http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.1.5.tar.gz

Lua 5.1.5 applies all patches listed in
	http://www.lua.org/bugs.html#5.1.4

It is now the current release of Lua 5.1.

Like all minor releases, this is strictly a bug-fix release; no new features
or improvements have been added, except for an updated reference manual.

We strongly recommend that Lua 5.1.5 be build *without* compatibility
with Lua 5.0, which remains turned on by default in luaconf.h. To turn
it off, just add the lines below in the "Local configuration" section at
the end of luaconf.h:

#undef LUA_COMPAT_VARARG
#undef LUA_COMPAT_MOD
#undef LUA_COMPAT_LSTR
#undef LUA_COMPAT_GFIND
#undef LUA_COMPAT_OPENLIB

We thank everyone for their feedback on Lua 5.1, especially those that have
sent bug reports and other suggestions.

Enjoy.
