Hmm, and I wouldn't expect to, actually.  Unless *all* of Lua is in
/usr/include/lua5.2--and I doubt that the libraries are down in the include
directory :-).

Though that's not really the problem here anyway.  I guess we need to allow the
user to specify the version instead of the directory (as is done today with
Qt).

BTW does your system provide one or more lua*.pc (pkgconfig) files?  I'm
guessing not but I figured I'd check.  It should would be nice if Lua made
those standard.  Or if distributions routinely added them...  (You can see the
pain, suffering, and some possibly some of the resulting ranting about this
over on bug 10572--which is where I reworked all the Lua detection stuff.)
