That may not be the exact words that you used, but, once given the
quotation from the manual, your claim that lua_pcall() behaved

Again, when discussing a (potential) bug, one should come up with a
minimal bug demo, not a whole (research) project where it may have
been (mis) observed originally.

Then why can't you simply wrap all of the code in a coroutine and use
yield to exit it?
