Why did the linker try to resolve symbols in lopcodes.obj since
presumably  luac.obj is listed before lua.lib?
How are you building luac.exe?

I'm using script based on "etc/luavs.bat" to build Lua under Visual Studio command prompt.
It worked perfectly with all previous versions of Lua.

Should I set the correct order of .obj files for linker invocation?

What is this order?
