We currently add

        modluafooter = 'family("compiler")'

or similar to the easyconfig file.

There has been some work on this, see
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/pull/1257
However, the PR hasn't been touched for a while and will need some
care.  Maybe someone at the User Group meeting is keep on adopting
it ;-)

+1 for easyconfig patch files
