Thanks for you help, Mauro.  I am making incremental progress :)

I did this:
> export QT_INCLUDE=/usr/include

When I did this:
> ./cpptoxml/cpptoxml
the cpptoxml process ran at about 80% of CPU for 5 minutes before I killed it.

I guess this is because

I DON'T see this directory: /usr/include/QtCore

>Else you should find it and change /usr/include to the  proper directory.
Do you mean I should add an empty directory called QtCore in /usr/include
and then run ./cpptoxml/cpptoxml from ~/lqt.build/lib?

I just want to be sure before I do this, since you are so kind as to be holding my
hand through this process :)   Can you confirm that I should do it?

Yes, it did finish, and I see
liblua.so     libqtnetwork.so  libqtsvg.so
libqtcore.so  libqtopengl.so   libqtwebkit.so
libqtgui.so   libqtscript.so   libqtxml.so
all there.

I haven't finished the previous step yet, but I have renamed these files
in  ~/lqt.build/lib: qtcore.so  qtgui.so, copied t1.lua into this directory
and tried running > lua t1.lua there, but I got the same message from lua
that I was getting before:

lua: t1.lua:7: module 'qtcore' not found:
        no field package.preload['qtcore']
        no file './qtcore.lua'

I tried before moving them to /usr/local/share/lua/5.1
without taking the 'lib' prefix off the filenames, though.

At the moment, that directory only contains a subdirectory for 'luarocks'...
Does that look like a sensible place to put them?

Thanks again - hopefully this exchange might be useful to someone else...
