It's possible, but perhaps such measures would have little effect 
because the addresses are already available to harvesters by other means 
(archive links at http://www.lua.org/lua-l.html).

I would be opposed to stripping addresses because that would decrease 
the utility of the archives.  I'll see if I can't add a little obfuscation.
