Fusion is available separately if you go to:

    http://emma3d.org/svn/emma/mainline/emma/runtime/fusion

you can see the source. This version builds with MSDev 7.1 and 
Code:Blocks on Windows. A group is currently working on a Linux port, 
but I will let them chime in about their plans for doing that work.

I have not yet done an official announcement because we are still 
cleaning up parts of it and getting the documentation in shape. I had 
hoped to get it done by mid-December, but another priority has come up. 
So it will probably be mid-January now. The most important piece for you 
is that Fusion does not currently do Javascript-to-Lua translation. That 
is part of what I plan to do for (the first official release).

But you can get the source (using svn) and build today. Fusion is a very 
nice C++ Lua wrapper and has Javascript compatible Object, Array and 
Math objects.

Let me know if you find it useful...
