The current issues with lua vs master are as follows
1) <application> has been renamed to <call> on master
2) <sequence> has been replaced with <seq> which is not quite a drop-in
3) while was being compiled into something with improper scoping.

I have fixes for these locally. There is just the question of rebase vs
merge for bringing the branch up to date. Any preference there?
