Description

Since LuaLaTeX 0.85 (or maybe 0.87) almost all pdfTeX extented primitives with names \pdf have been renamed or removed (see: http://tug.ctan.org/macros/generic/luatex85/luatex85.pdf).

When running LuaLaTeX AMC therefore needs to use \savepos instead of \pdfsavepos, etc.

I can confirm this bug.
On Debian stretch (stagble) with LuaTeX, Version 0.95.0 (TeX Live 2016/Debian) and AMC 1.3.0.

As workaround, I had to define the missing commands by adding the following:

\let\pdfsavepos\savepos
\let\pdflastxpos\lastxpos
\let\pdflastypos\lastypos

before the \usepackage[...]{automultiplechoice}
