This is already in the code:

    lua_getuservalue(L, 1); /* the socket user value */
    lua_pushvalue(L, -2); /* the pcap socket nsiod */
    lua_pushboolean(L, 1); /* dummy variable */
    lua_rawset(L, -3);

The pcap nsiod is anchored in the nsock userdata's uservalue (what
used to be a userdata environment in Lua 5.1).

What is the callstack for the error?
