Same symptom with require("posix"):
========================================
slitt@mydesk:~/ulua/program$ ./test.lua
/usr/bin/lua: ./test.lua:2: module 'posix' not found:
no field package.preload['posix']
no file './posix.lua'
no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/posix.lua'
no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/posix/init.lua'
no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/posix.lua'
no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/posix/init.lua'
no file '/usr/share/lua/5.1/posix.lua'
no file '/usr/share/lua/5.1/posix/init.lua'

no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/posix.so'
no file '/usr/lib/lua/5.1/posix.so'
no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/loadall.so'
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'require'
./test.lua:2: in main chunk
[C]: ?
slitt@mydesk:~/ulua/program$
========================================
So I'll probably just do it in C.
