If you want to package lua, you may find this useful:
http://cygwin-ports.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cygwin-ports/ports/trunk/lang/lua5.1/
Hmmm - I never thought to look there, apparently you've
done a lot of the work already :-)
And looking at the ports list, it seems that all the libs I
was hoping to port over are already there!
Is there any value at all in building a package targeted for
the "official" Cygwin setup?
And do you need some help in getting the Lua stuff in ports
updated to the latest versions?

PS. A brief answer here is OK, and then I'll move the discussin
to cygwin-ports if it turns out that's where we're going
