Hi! Thanks for the patch!

See 2 minor comments below.

1. To reduce diff size and to keep inlining when
possible you can remove word 'static', and add

    extern inline void
    error_unref(struct error *e);

to diag.c.

Yeah, exactly 'extern inline', not just 'extern'.
I recently discovered that it is a special thing for
such cases.

2. Did you check that preve does not leak when GC starts working?
You can use setmetatable({}, {__mode = 'v'}) for that, see
examples by grepping " __mode = 'v' ".
