I made a partial port of gllua to lua 4.0. You can find the link on
http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~cvogler/lua/tklua.html.

However, some things to keep in mind:

1. Callback functions are not implemented (hence the "partial" port).
2. The code for Windows is untested and might not even compile.
3. We use it only in conjunction with tklua, so I don't know how stable
   the standalone part is or whether it will even compile.

You are very welcome to hack away on it or even to use my port as a
basis for taking over the project, because I am not very keen on
supporting it at all. If you find and fix a bug, though, I would
welcome a patch.

Regards
