This code is based directly on that with some modifictions of my own.
The current code base is very restructured, but should be logically
the same. I'll look into it.

Probably not, the lua at SF is identical to the lua in 26.254 and if
you say it works there then it should still work.

The problem is that lua itself "copies" the lua_State, maybe not
literally, but in my testing of the program gpeddler I found that a
new lua_State was created for coroutines and that you had to
reassociate the lua_State with wxLua's variables.
