That ship has sailed. We recently had this discussion on GitHub: LuaRocks chose `luarocks-5.1`, on Windows `lua52.dll` seems customary now (for Lua 5.1 LuaBinaries chose `lua5.1.dll` instead), on FreeBSD you have `/usr/local/include/lua51` (but `lua-5.1` as executable and pkg-config name), and on Debian/Ubuntu you have the names you mentioned. And that's only the three OSes I work with ...
