Ops again. And sorry again for the double post, but I have to report a
severe failure in my memory (the one in my brain I mean).

The Errata:
1) The first link I posted [1] does actually contain the code for
passing the tables, but, as noted by Andrea, there is no reference to
the changes in the Readme
2) I fought with it some days ago, and I ended up forking the code [2]
3) I performed some VERY minimal tests on table passing, that seems to
work. But I would NOT use it in production without other extensive
tests.

If you want to give it a quick try, I have a static lua release that
includes this LuaProc extension [3].

[1], I just added the reference to the L.Millan thesis and a function
I needed for some test: it reports the number of free/running threads.

windows and mac packages in the Release section:
