Sorry, the documentation of the option was misleading. When it says
"Do not use the LUAROCKS_CONFIG variable or the user's home directory"
it means "Do not use the configuration file specified by the
LUAROCKS_CONFIG or the configuration file in the user's home
directory". But I'll change it to the behavior you expected, as it
does make more sense for a /FORCECONFIG installation. (In any case
LuaRocks embedded in apps will usually replace config.lua with their
own customized versions.)
