Apparently not all Linux distros have dlopen(); there was a query
on #lua the other day from someone using linuxppc on an
embedded ARM appliance with no shared object implementation.

It might well be better if LUA_USE_LINUX were removed from luaconf.h,
and the correct constellation of -D flags put in the Makefile instead.
That might make it easier all round.
