I'll just give a little bit of feedback on this. It really may be simpler just to build your own Lua DLL, or even statically link it. I was worried when I was going to start using Lua because I've used other 'Unix' type components (eg SQLite, etc) which I've had quite a bit of difficulty building in MSVC V5. However, Lua built with absolutely ZERO problems (not 'just a few', but ZERO) on a plain vanilla MSVC V5 setup, in about 3 seconds flat (the whole of Lua built in less time than some of our C++ files individually). Lua is written in plain ANSI C, so it'll compile on almost anything. It doesn't need Linux/GNU header files or anything.
You're probably finding it harder to use a pre-built DLL than you would have found to build it yourself from scratch...
