If you want to stay on the stable release, I've found that putting the strings
into a dictionary with global scope works around the problem.  YMMV depending
on how many variations you have for the pinfo string.  I guess the set command
doesn't make a copy of the string so when the non-const string goes out of
scope lua writes over the top.
