As of r24615, the Lua interpreter won't read negative numbers correctly from a file.
I was using it to flag certain numbers that were saved and loaded to a file between runnings of my Lua script. The attached file is a hacked down version of my script that helped me notice the bug.
This task depends upon

There's no attachment.
