Wow, thanks

henk@invincible-spell:~$ lsof | grep 'luajit.*GL'
luajit    2529       henk  mem       REG                8,5   372400
266276 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1.2
luajit    2529       henk  mem       REG                8,5  1025968

Why would the luajit ffi be using a different library than the linker/loader?
