If they're all the same data type, LuaJIT does offer variable-length arrays.
http://luajit.org/ext_ffi_api.html
This is likewise untested, but I think it'd be something like:
local vla = ffi.new("char*[?]", #t, unpack(t))
myCFunction(#t, vla)
Remember that there's no way to inspect the length of an array in C so
you'll have to pass the length explicitly to the function.
