The Windows binaries are from http://luabinaries.sourceforge.net/ . The C
runtime libraries for Visual C++ 8 are required, and are not bundled. If an
error is seen reporting that "msvcr80.dll" is not present, it can be downloaded
from Microsoft:
* 32-bit: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=5638
* 64-bit: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=21254
The Linux binaries were compiled using "make generic". Lua does not use
autoconf, rather it encourages users to edit the makefile. The makefile patch
used to create the Linux binaries is in generic.patch.
Compiling with "make generic" avoids introducing dynamic library dependencies
other than libc. This makes the binaries work on a far greater variety of Linux
distributions.
