Regarding this section in llimits.h:

/*
** non-return type
*/
#if defined(__GNUC__)
#define l_noret        void __attribute__((noreturn))
#elif defined(_MSC_VER)
#define l_noret        void __declspec(noreturn)
#else
#define l_noret        void
#endif

By experimentation, it looks like __declspec(noreturn) support was added 
in MSVC 6.  So the _MSC_VER line could be changed to the following:

#elif defined(_MSC_VER) && _MSC_VER >= 1200

Just to make things a little easier for anyone playing with older 
Microsoft compilers.  (Also applies to Lua 5.2.)
