I managed to get it to work with lua 4.1; i can send you the diff if you
want to. So the debian packages are ready, i uploaded them to unstable a
few hours ago. It will take some time until they are actually added to
the archive though.

You can always put an additional tarball for lua on your download page,
too. People not having lua in their distribution then can download that
as well.

A similar diff is missing for the toplevel Makefile.am:
