Evan,
your report is quite detailed, but it's helpful for non-MiKTeX LuaTeX
users to know the version number of LuaTeX.  It's most important to
know at least which version of Lua is used.  I don't have Windows and
thus can't check myself.

LuaTeX -- version beta-0.76.0-2013062419 (rev 4627)

If you have to add these lines around line 95, you certainly have an
older version of lualibs.  In the latest version this is around line
150.

Indeed, for my older version of lua* (which did and still works perfectly, by the way!), this is what I had to do. And as per my OP, I did the same thing
in the new version, down around line 150.


If you are using a recent LuaTeX from May 2013 (with Lua 5.2), you
need the latest version of lualibs and maybe many other Lua dependent
packages.  If you are using an older version (with Lua 5.1) it's not a
good idea to use the new libraries.

I deduce that your LuaTeX is up-to-date, but I'm not sure.



its as up-to-date as I can make it from the files installed using the MikTeX update routines.
