WinXP 32 bit, using Lua for Windows, LuaRocks 2.0.2
I'm aware that 2.0.2 is an older version but it comes with LfW, and I
couldn't find how to update that. So if its fixed already, please ignore.
I'm getting a nasty error when the download fails, its easy to fix the
nasty-ness, but the problem remains, because the file does exist in
The download location.
Here is the error and the nasty-ness fix;

When modifying 'lua.lua' wrapping 'err' at line 526 as 'tostring(err)' fixes
it;

if not content then

end
