Re: Making Lua BitOp work with LNUM patch

[Methos <methos.oldest@...>]

Thank you for all the responses. Unfortunately, I ended up porting all of my code to 'C' mainly because it was blocking a lot and I could not find ready made lua-lanes package and did not have time to attempt porting it.

I've fixed it for good with following commit:

            Lua: Do not use LNUM and opcode patches

            It's producing strange and hard to debug errors for example with 32bit CRC
            computation done in Lua. It doesn't bring noticeable speed-up either anyway so
            we rather keep Lua as vanilla as possible just to be on safe side. It makes
            the desktop(x86) tested scripts more portable also.
