Ok, so the issue is with loading the bytecode, not with creating it. > OK, thanks.

Alright, so the issue seems to be in Lua somewhere, and not LuaTeX itself. But plenty of other programs embed Lua, so it's interesting that LuaTeX is the only/first place that this bug showed up for you. I also tried installing libtrash on my computer, and everything works properly with libtrash v3.8 and Lua v5.4.7. So the issue seems to depend on something specific with your installation, although I have no idea what. Is it something to do with FORTIFY_SOURCE or a weird ABI mismatch maybe? Thanks, -- Max
