Issue 10671 necessitates Lua to be built with -fno-omit-frame-pointer, so a distribution-agnostic liblua.a is included and used by default for both x86-32 and x86-64 Linux targets. For other targets that are hit by issue 10671, an appropriately compiled library needs to be supplied by the user.

This directory contains a static library of Lua 5.1.5 in OMF format, compiled with the DigitalMars C Compiler (DMC). OMF is required by DMD/OPTLINK for 32-bit Windows targets. Although OMF libraries share the .lib extension with the more commonly used COFF format, they are not compatible, so this binary is included for convenience. It is not an import library - there is no dependency on a DLL.

Copy dmc.mak from this directory to the top level directory of the Lua source code release. Then edit src/luaconf.h to manually disable popen support. Then invoke the makefile with GNU make:

mingw32-make -fdmc.mak

Requires the DMC toolchain (specifically, the C compiler and the librarian).
