As copied from #172 (comment)

rlua needs to at least support Lua 5.4 when it is released, and ideally it would also support Lua 5.1 (and LuaJIT) and 5.2. This is potentially hard to make truly sound, but rlua has at least already done the hard work to protect against memory allocation and GC errors, so this is not completely infeasible.
