If I embed the Lua source, won it clash with my coding habits?

Some organisations operate code quality policies that require programmers to eliminate all compiler warnings as they go along. Under these conditions, an embedded unit can be a major problem if its code generates warnings. At best, it might be necessary to check the list of warnings during every compilation to ensure none of them originated from the host program. At worst, it might be necessary to modify all offending code in the unit. A modified unit is, of course, no longer consistent with the standard distribution and so the same modifications will likely have to be repeated each time a new version of the unit is released. (An open source project might allow the modifications to be commited back to the main codebase, but there is no guarantee that other developers will maintain the same level of discipline in the future.) Lua is designed with this issue in mind. During testing, the source is compiled with the maximum level of warnings on a number of compilers. Any resulting warnings
