Hi Taco!
Thanks a lot for the new release, soon there will be packages for linux
build on various archs on Debian.
On point:

* the lua functions os.sleep(), os.times(), os.gettimeofday()
and os.tmpdir() have been added.
os.tmpdir always tries to create a directory in . which is bad if it
happens that you are in /.
I changed the function so that it takes an argument = template, and in
case there is no argument tries . as before:
change os.tmpdir so that it takes an argument for template

I have NO idea whatsoever on lua programming, parts of it were copied
from other sources and adapted etc. Please use whatever you need and fix
the errors. I tested it with texdoclua and
os.tmpdir("/tmp/texdoc.XXXXXX")
and it worked.
It would be nice if you could include that into upstream, thanks
Best wishes
Norbert
