Applied, thanks. This is not optimal though because: 1. We=E2=80=99re still providing liblua.a, but that archives actually con= tains PIC code. 2. The =E2=80=98lua=E2=80=99 and =E2=80=98luac=E2=80=99 executables are n= ot linked against liblua.so. If you have time, it would be nice to discuss this with upstream; it=E2=80= =99s not something we should fix ourselves IMO. Ludo=E2=80=99.
