I'd advice on making it work first with Lua-5.02 (with compat-5.1, of course).

to be frank, i find the path-setting parts a bit confusing too; but after it's 
all setup, it's all easy.

my (personal) solution is to use a small shell script to set up the relevant 
variables and call the lua executable.  that's on my development box; on 
'production' system, i use the default paths and it's not needed at all.
