If your compiler can't optimize to the extent of doing register
allocation and avoiding stack temporaries, then the stack usage of
luaV_execute (which is called once per recursion level) will be much
larger than normal (in my tests, it could increase by over 10x). You
will therefore need to reduce LUAI_MAXCSTACK or use a linker option to
increase the allowed stack space.
