I believe, that is not only restricted to setting an array. 

It seems, you can't call any function where the type needs to be boxed through 
an System.Object. For example:

public void foobar(object o) // must be a float
{
  // luainterface always boxes o as a System.Double, so it crashes here
  float f = (float)o; 
}

can this function be called from LuaInterface?

This heavily restricts the use of LuaInterface and reflection for me :(
