Hello,
Recently, I have run into strange error messages using plain luatex. I have narrowed it down to some minimal examples shown below with their log. I have tried luatex provided by texlive 2011 and a build from the latest svn trunk. They work fine with pdftex. They also work fine (apart from luatex being unable to ship the huge page) when removing the \font\temp=... line in the loop. In case you wonder, my intent is not to put 10k lines on one page, it just simplifies the examples. I also get the errors when spreading out the text across multiple pages.
Thanks for the report. This type of error in luatex comes up semi-regularly. Often, it is the result of bad lua programming, but this one looks like a proper engine bug. It will be hard to track down, but I will create a bug tracker item and hopefully it will be fixed in the next release. Best wishes, Taco
