One could argue that by definition a program with debug hooks in it
is still under development, and changes to its source code are still
to be expected.

What I have learnt from this thread is "return hooks give undefined
results when an expression rather than a variable is being returned".
I think I'll patch it into my local copy of $LUA/doc/manual.html.
