In Lua 5.2 the bitop library is missing - it's not getting loaded into the lua
global table as "bit", or anything else for that matter.  Lua 5.2 has its own
bit-operations library ("bit32") which is there, but that one's not as good as
bitop and would break back/forward compatibility for lua scripts anyway.  I'm
pretty sure I know what/where the bug is, so I'll submit a patch to gerrit.
