So, breaking build on RHEL/Centos-7 is a non-option for the time being, The
only thing that qualifies as a precedent we have for this sort of thing is for
bundled BDB support and don't really like that either.
What I'd prefer is a patch that adds support for Lua 5.3 without requiring
LUA_COMPAT_MODULE for it, but allowing 5.1-5.2 to keep building without any
extra hassle. As in, keep my cake and eat it too ;)
If it requires copying a trick or two from the lua-compat thing into rpm then
so be it. Looking at the amount of changed code in is PR, it's not a whole lot
really.
