Probably the new utf8 library and the new string.pack and unpack functions.

If I do:

>lua -e "utf8=nil collectgarbage 'collect' print(collectgarbage 'count')"

Would the utf8 library be unloaded, and I should see the unloaded memory usage?

 

package.loaded.utf8?

Oh, and as a bonus: I don't think C code gets unloaded like that.
