A block of memory is accessed after having been freed. This was obscured by the fact that 'oBuf' is a pointer into the middle of the block 'dynamicTables', so when dynamicTables is freed, oBuf is pointing to freed memory. Occasionally, luac.cross would crash because of this.
- Optimise ROTable accesses and interface
This includes some refinements to the ROTable cache which remove the linker cludges on the CROSS_COMPILE builds. Also keyhole tweaks to some of the Lua VM code to implrove runtimes.
I also noticed some compile time warnings during the build; the change to uz_unzip.c doesn't impact the compiled code, but does remove the compiler warnings.
