I assumed a Lua interpreter statically linked with liblua and exporting
the Lua API via -Wl,-E. I'm sorry the README isn't clear.

That should mean that the interpreter is statically linked with liblua.
It should have worked, if you've used -Wl,-E or -rdynamic to build it.

Sorry about that. The whole shared-object business is messy.

Anyway, try
	cc -o lposix.so -shared lposix.o -llua -llualib
and see if it helps.

I'm sorry I cannot help you further, having no FreeBSD to play with.
