If you create ~/.vim/after/syntax/lua.vim and add the following two
lines you should have what you want:

syntax match luaLocalFunc /\(local\s\+function\s\+\)\@<=\w\+/
containedin=luaFunctionBlock
highlight def link luaLocalFunc Function

If you remove the local\s\+ bit it will highlight all functions instead
of just local functions.
