What values, and in what way did you modify l_str2int? And what types
are you using for lua_Integer, lua_Unsigned etc? It all works fine for
me on my ARM systems.

(A common error that shows up on ARM platforms is if you try and cast a
negative float value to an unsigned integer; this is undefined in C.)
