Please see referenced question on ask.wireshark.org, including the dissector
written in Lua that exhibits the issue.

Have used a Lua dissector to extract a 64-bit value from a UDP packet payload,
but after assigning that value to a Lua variable, attempts to increment the
value by 1 appear to cause the Lua script to simply halt.

If the Lua script instead is used to extract the lower or upper 32-bits of this
64-bit value, incrementing the resulting value works as expected.

So, are 64-bit values handled in an inappropriate way in Lua dissectors?
