     67 <span style="color: #0000c0;">LuaJIT&nbsp;2.0</span> is the current
     68 <span style="color: #0000c0;">stable branch</span>. This branch is in
     69 feature-freeze &mdash; new features will only be added to LuaJIT&nbsp;2.1.
     70 </p>
     71 
     72 <h2>Current Status</h2>
     73 <p>
     74 LuaJIT ought to run all Lua&nbsp;5.1-compatible source code just fine.
     75 It's considered a serious bug if the VM crashes or produces unexpected
     76 results &mdash; please report this.
     77 </p>
     78 <p>
     79 Known incompatibilities and issues in LuaJIT&nbsp;2.0:
     80 </p>
     81 <ul>
     82 <li>
     83 There are some differences in <b>implementation-defined</b> behavior.
     84 These either have a good reason, are arbitrary design choices
     85 or are due to quirks in the VM. The latter cases may get fixed if a
     86 demonstrable need is shown.
     87 </li>
     88 <li>
     89 The Lua <b>debug API</b> is missing a couple of features (return
     90 hooks for non-Lua functions) and shows slightly different behavior
     91 in LuaJIT (no per-coroutine hooks, no tail call counting).
     92 </li>
     93 <li>
     94 Currently some <b>out-of-memory</b> errors from <b>on-trace code</b> are not
     95 handled correctly. The error may fall through an on-trace
     96 <tt>pcall</tt> or it may be passed on to the function set with
     97 <tt>lua_atpanic</tt> on x64. This issue will be fixed with the new
     98 garbage collector.
