I'm not sure this will really be of much interested to anybody on this list, but I just released a Lua plugin for REALbasic (http://realbasic.com). It can be had at http://amianduri.com.

I realize I haven't updated my Stella app in some time. I hope to do that in the not-too-distant-future.

One little problem I ran into with the Lua Plugin has to do with supporting the io library. I'd really like to support it as-is, such that scripts written with read() and write() just work correctly. But that's tough to do when you don't have STDIN and STDOUT. I'm thinking I'm either going to have to rewrite the io library so that it doesn't call fputs() and fgets(), or not include that library at all and register my own functions that provide the correct functionality. But what I'd really like to do is include the io library as-is, but have the ability to register (in the C sense of callbacks, not in the Lua sense) my own io handlers. Default handlers could be supplied that work the way expect them to.
