4. How can I avoid to rename the "LoadString" function?
    

Use a compiler that does not polutte the global namespace :-)
  

LoadString has a #define in the Windows headers.  It is very sad that Microsoft redefines common words behind your back.  You could either #undef it or use #pragma push_macro("LoadString") then a #undef LoadString and then a #pragma pop_macro("LoadString").

5. Overall, did I do things the right way? or am I missing other obvious ways of doing this?
    

You missed etc/all.c... Note that it uses the Lua sources unmodified.
No need to remove the "#include" from them

Why does the etc/all.c amalgamation #include "lua.c"?
