You may also look at my libraries, specially lgdbm, which is fairly small:

All my Lua libraries are written by hand. For the larger ones, I used small,
taylor-made Lua scripts to read pieces of the original C library and generate
almost complete Lua bindings. I did that for starting lpdf and lmapm.

If your lua interpreter supports dynamic loading then you don't have to change
it at all. This is how all my Lua libraries are tested.
