module() is annoying but relatively easy to change, and the new way works with 5.1.

When I port from 5.1 while keeping 5.1 support, environments are more annoying for me, because the new way is not backward-compatible. It is possible to implement something that works like setfenv / getfenv [1] but there are gotchas.
