I did them all at once. I will do some digging in git, but I can tell
you that Penlight was one of them. (I've submitted a pull request,
although patching for a "work 1" release is probably stretching
things)

I will also assume that you are not interested in the libraries which
failed due to explicit version checks. Ex: "if not lua5.2 then --do
old behavior" There were maybe 10 or so of those.
