For performance reasons the Lua stack is not kept in sync, except
where absolutely needed. One could work around this on a
case-by-case basis, but that quickly becomes rather complicated or
unfeasible (e.g. for allocations called from JIT-compiled code).
The only guaranteed places are C hooks or C functions bound via
the classic Lua/C API.
