I get an error for loading compute.utils:
[string "luaeval"]:1: module 'compute.utils' not found:
<09>no field package.preload['compute.utils']

Does that need to be installed first?

There are a couple of errors in the code that you should have noticed:
There should not be a space before the colons in the dictionary.

I assume you call the function with "echo Foo()"?

I cannot guess what the problem is, this appears to work fine:

def Foo(): float
return luaeval('math.pi')
enddef
