+  /* Regularly check for instruction/line hooks from compiled code and
+  ** exit to the interpreter if the hooks are set.
+  **
+  ** This is a compile-time option and disabled by default, since the
+  ** hook checks may be quite expensive in tight loops.
+  **
+  ** Note this is only useful if hooks are *not* set most of the time.
+  ** Use this only if you want to *asynchronously* interrupt the execution.
+  **
+  ** You can set the instruction hook via lua_sethook() with a count of 1
+  ** from a signal handler or another native thread. Please have a look
+  ** at the first few functions in luajit.c for an example (Ctrl-C handler).
