after a bit of research this turned out to be a "problem" in lua: the
table.getn() function has been deprecated in lua5.1 and removed in
lua5.2, hence those lua-externs are no longer working with recent
versions of lua.

similariy [lexpr] doesn't work any more since getfenv/setfenv have been
removed in lua5.2

these probably should be fixed by some lua savy.
