  I did a few spot checks, and from what I saw, there wasn't anything in the
funtions I looked at that was specific to a particular Lua version.  But if
it came down to it:

	if _VERSION == "Lua 5.1" then
	  return function() -- Lua 5.1 version
	  end

	elseif _VERSION == "Lua 5.2" then
	  return function() -- Lua 5.2 version
	  end

	elseif _VERSION == "Lua 5.3" then
	  return function() -- Lua 5.3 version
	  end

	else
	  error("Unsupported version of Lua")
	end
