Thanks for the link and example.

Yes, the ideal would be a small self-contained example, but seeing one 
way of handling builds with multiple LUA versions is quite useful in and 
of itself.

I've been using LUA_COMPAT_MODULE in the meantime (I found it while 
digging through the source). My hope is to get something going, and then 
go back and update things if needed.

I also stumbled upon this when looking up a different issue:

This *might* be roughly what I was after- I haven't completely wrapped 
my head around it yet.

Thanks again for the link- much appreciated.

Cheers,
Garth
