Could you reconsider the endianess issue? That is, to have the
modified lundump.c in the main sources, it could be #ifdef'fed like
readline support is, that would be fine (= we need to specifically
enable multi-endianness support).
This comes up at least in fink (OS X) packaging; now, we'll have to
include & deliver a separate patch. Otherwise, we could be building
just based on the official .tar.gz.
Thanks for the consideration, :)

Roger. So the 5.1.x luac will always generate (say) little-endian
bytecode and any other platforms will need to cross-compile that
bytecode (or the client platform requires the modified C code).?
luac will always generate native-endian bytecode. There is no cross-
compiler
(yet). If you want clients to load bytecode of any endiannes, just
build Lua
with the modified lundump.c that I posted. I'm sorry if I wasn't
clear about
that before.
