i believe it started because on mac had to add extries that expanded to 
"-framework xxx -framework yyy ... " which the linking table didnt support so I 
had to resort to strings. then i used that code as i ported. actually lua 
tables seemed pretty crappy to me at the time, i coudlnt even see how to append 
two tables togehter without writing a loop so using a string was easier an 
actually worked. but im certainly no lua expert
