lua.go:425–438

Load loads a Lua chunk, without running it. If there are no errors, it pushes the compiled chunk as a Lua function on top of the stack. Otherwise, it pushes an error message. http://www.lua.org/manual/5.2/manual.html#lua_load

	if err := protectedParser(l, r, chunkName, mode); err != nil {

// Dump dumps a function as a binary chunk. It receives a Lua function on
