  I think the following Makefile will work for Ubuntu.  I created it in the
lua-5.3/src directory and named it "Makefile.ubuntu".  Then run from the
lua-5.3/src directory:

	GenericUnixPrompt% make -f Makefile.ubuntu clean
	GenericUnixPrompt% make -f Makefile.ubuntu

and you should have a liblua53.so in the directory.  You can copy it where
you need, or you could do:

	GenericUnixPrompt% su make -f Makefile.ubuntu install libdir=/path/to/whereever

  -spc (It follows the GNU Makefile convention, as far as I can tell)

INSTALL         = /usr/bin/install
INSTALL_PROGRAM = $(INSTALL)

prefix         = /usr/local
exec_prefix    = $(prefix)
libdir         = $(exec_prefix)/lib

.PHONY: all install uninstall clean

CC = gcc -std=c99 -Wall -Wextra -pedantic
CFLAGS = -fPIC -shared -g -DLUA_USE_LINUX

%.so :
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $^
