Building on freebsd doesn't work without adding CC=cc (since gcc is not
installed by default and if you install it from ports, it's usually
under a version-specific name such as gcc6), and also enabling readline
requires adding -I/usr/local/include and -L/usr/local/lib, or tweaking
things to use libedit instead.

I've tried these, which all seem to work on my system (though obviously
the presence of a port build would make this somewhat moot):

# with base system libedit:
freebsd:
	$(MAKE) $(ALL) CC="cc" SYSCFLAGS="-DLUA_USE_LINUX -DLUA_USE_READLINE -I/usr/include/edit" SYSLIBS="-Wl,-E -ledit"

# ... with readline from ports:
freebsd-readline:
	$(MAKE) $(ALL) CC="cc" SYSCFLAGS="-DLUA_USE_LINUX -DLUA_USE_READLINE -I/usr/local/include" SYSLIBS="-Wl,-E -L/usr/local/lib -lreadline"

# ... with editing disabled
freebsd-noedit:
	$(MAKE) $(ALL) CC="cc" SYSCFLAGS="-DLUA_USE_LINUX" SYSLIBS="-Wl,-E"

and speaking of readline, it would still be good for lua.c to set
rl_readline_name and (maybe) rl_inhibit_completion as discussed
recently.
