When nginx-core and Ubuntu Main support was introduced, it necessitated
dropping the luajit dependency - the reason being everything in Main
that had a build dependency in Universe would not get put into Main, and
the Universe depends need to be dropped for that.  Which is why we do
not include the LuaJIT support.

According to Ubuntu Main Inclusion Requirements, point 6
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionRequirements):

Dependencies:
All build and binary dependencies (including Recommends:) must be satisfyable 
in main (i. e. the preferred alternative must be in main). If not, these 
dependencies need a separate MIR report (this can be a separate bug or another 
task on the main MIR bug)


We had discussed LuaJIT, and had decided against trying to add it into Main.  
Therefore, we stuck specifically to Lua, and not LuaJIT.

I'm not sure if this has changed or not...
