reading between the lines of the error message, a function needs a return value and statement.
edit: I don't think all of the low level routines have full coverage yet.

Hi
A function should have the structure
function name(params) return something end function
you have to return something. You do not have to do anything with whatever is returned.

A function should ... have to return something.
While this is true, the bug being highlighted here is that this particular routine should have been a procedure and not a function.

Whoops! Thanks for catching that. This was a compatibility function for 4.0 (poke_long is now a built in for 4.1). Fixed now in changeset 39242f3eafca.

Actually, poke_long is tested, but as a built-in. The 4.0 compatibility version isn't. Those are there to make it possible to build a 4.1 from source using a 4.0 translator.
