Looking at earlier messages, I realise that there are two 
discussion threads going on here: 5.0.2 -> 5.1 and 5.1 -> 5.1, and 
I'm probably mixing them up. My apologies.

Cross-compiling for 5.1 -> 5.1 is already done (as is 5.0.2 -> 
5.0.2). ChunkSpy (on LuaForge) can rewrite 5.1wk5 binary chunks, 
including changing endianness and number data type. I will update 
the script to 5.1wk6 shortly.
