Lua compilation and exceptions

Hi,

should Lua be built as C++ to play nicely with luabind error handling?

>From http://lua-users.org/wiki/BuildingLua:
"By default if lua 5.1 or later is compiled as C++, it will use C++
exceptions to unwind the stack rather than longjmp/setjmp, though this
is configurable (at compile time). See luaconf.h near
LUAI_THROW/LUAI_TRY for a discussion of this."

I am rather confused how this fits into luabind's exception handling.
For example, docs say that:
"If any of the functions you register throws an exception when called,
that exception will be caught by luabind and converted to an error
string and lua_error() will be invoked."

Since lua_error() behaves differently depending on how Lua was build
(longjump in C, exceptions in C++) which is the correct way to build
Lua when used with luabind?

Szymon Gatner
