Either I don't understand what you are saying or you did not understand
what I said.

It does not matter the value of '&foo'. As long as it differ by at
most 2^30 from some base stack address (easily saved on start up),
all LuaJIT has to store is that 2^30 offset plus one bit to tell
that the address refers to the stack (and therefore must be added
to that base stack address when queried).
