After a long struggle to install LuaSocket (the binaries needed to be
recompiled for LuaJIT on my Windows machine) using MinGW, I gave up and
built it from a tarball, manually editing the makefile.

Is there any documentation on how to configure LR for MinGW, so that the
correct paths/etc are picked up? After re-installing LR with the /MW switch
the output of "luarocks build luasocket" ends as follows:

####
Extracting  luasocket-2.0.2\test\testsrvr.lua
Extracting  luasocket-2.0.2\test\testsupport.lua

Everything is Ok

Folders: 6
Files: 89
Size:       477216
Compressed: 552960
mingw32-make: Makefile.win: No such file or directory
mingw32-make: *** No rule to make target `Makefile.win'.  Stop.

Error: Build error: Failed building.
####

I can provide the awful hand-edited makefile that worked for my MinGW
install, building DLLs for LuaJIT, if it's of any use? Or is there a good
way to automatically configure it that I didn't know about (highly likely)?
