"Another issue I've noticed is trying to pass a table with a function
that uses closures in it as a global variable into a new lane.  This
causes a segmentation fault and it appears to be related to the
luaG_inter_move function near line 835-836 or so in lanes.c, but I
haven't investigated further.
e.g. { globals = { data = 1, func = function() useclosurehere() end } }"
]]

require "lanes"

local function testrun()
    assert( print )
    assert( data==1 )
    assert( type(func)=="function" )
    func()  -- "using the closure"
    return true
end

-- Should also work without these lines, but currently doesn't (bug in Lanes,
-- a function thrown over isn't connected to receiving lane's globals)

    assert( print )
    print "using the closure" 
end

local lane= lanes.gen( "", { globals = { data=1, func=useclosurehere } }, testrun )()
