Yeah, nothing in the tarball mentions the license. It's listed in Luarocks
(Lua's equivalent to pypi) (which is linked to from the documentation):
http://luarocks.org/modules/peterbillam/readline (if you click on any of the
version e.g. 2.7-0 and look at the rockspec file, it lists the license too)

I'm following the author's intention here. The Lua module (readline.lua)
requires the C module as C-readline:

specs/lua/readline-2.7 on  master [?] 
❯ grep "require 'C-readline'" readline.lua                                     
local initialise = require 'C-readline'

I'm working on packaging guidelines for Lua (as well as some automated
packaging tool) but they're not ready yet, my bad. Hopefully soon enough we'll
be able to run `rock2spec readline` and it will download the rockspec and
generate a reasonable spec.
