Perhaps you could tell us exactly what you have tested that makes you confident in saying that Windows file names have been 'fixed'. Otherwise there is no way for us to know, because the tests in your patch give us no indication.

It's a figure of speech.

By the way, precisely what versions of Lua use the message format you described? This information should go into the entry of compilation.txt (and the comments describing the new entries in compilation-error-regexp-alist-alist).
As you say, Lua versions tend to introduce incompatible changes because of how the language is used, and this could very well include the formatting of diagnostics.
