With that command line, I get an executable of 204406 bytes on
gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5).

With `make linux`, it's 214894 bytes.

I guessed the difference is 5.1 compatibility. So:

cc -O2 -DLUA_USE_LINUX -DLUA_COMPAT_ALL one.c -lm -ldl -lreadline -Wl,-E

Now the excutable is 204637 bytes. So that's not it.
