853//                  self-referential &mut borrow needs architectural resolution,
854//                  (3) GC API stubs (gc_count, gc_step, …) need Phase D
855//                  implementations, (4) I/O (write_output, load_file*) must be

859//                  `struct LuaState;` placeholder here avoids duplicate-definition
