Here is a Makefile for Lua 5.3 that detects the platform using name [1].
Place it in src/ and do "make clean guess" to try it.

I've tested it in Linux and macOS but I don't have access to other
platforms. Perhaps some of you do. In particular, I don't know whether
FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD are all the same.

Hi,

It fires correctly on FreeBSD but contains the same error in the FreeBSD target as 5.3.5 (I still feel awful about that! lol). Output here: https://pastebin.com/f1zA9Lux

All contributions welcome. Thanks.
