I built LuaJIT under mingw
(http://sourceforge.net/p/safelua/wiki/LuaJIT%20binaries/) and then
put in LuaSocket (the binary from
http://luaforge.net/frs/download.php/2666/luasocket-2.0.2-lua-5.1.2-Win32-vc8.zip).

That combination uses a different versions of the C runtime library. LuaJIT will be linked against MSVCRT.DLL from VC6.0, and luasocket against MSVCR80.DLL from VC8.0. Mixing C runtime DLLs is technically possible, but an easy pathway to madness.

A simple answer that always works is that you need to use the same C runtime for the EXE and every DLL, and there should be only one instance of the C runtime which in practice means it is dynamically linked, not statically linked to any component.
