Lua through 5.4.0 has a segmentation fault in changedline in ldebug.c
(e.g., when called by luaG_traceexec) because it incorrectly expects that
an oldpc value is always updated upon a return of the flow of control to a
function.

Notes

Author	Note
sbeattie	older luas need checking as the code has changed but may still be vulnerable
mdeslaur	couldn’t reproduce on lua earlier than 5.4. No indication that earlier versions are vulnerable. Marking not-affected.
