This looks like an error in luatexbase-compat.sty to me, but I feel like I've forgotten all about TeX macro programming.:

\luatexbase at directlua{tex.enableprimitives('luatex', '#1')}}

and 

\luatexbase at ensure@primitive{luaescapestring}

The message is, that the second arg to enableprimitives must be an array, but the expansion of 

\luatexbase at ensure@primitive{luaescapestring}

is something like

tex.enableprimitives('luatex', 'luaescapestring')

which does not look like an array (but an error) to me.
