I have been using Gentoo lately (both Portage under MacOS X and under  
Linux). Current Gentoo ebuilds for Lua are named like «lua-5.1», but  
that's only the (irrelevant) name of the ebuild. Installed libraries  
are named «liblua.5.1.so» with two symlinks named «liblua.5.so» and  
«liblua.so» pointing to the library. I think there would be no  
problem at all in using «liblua5.1.so» -- people maintaining ebuilds  
won't complain if someone asks them to drop the leading dot, AFAIK.

P.S: This is my first mail to lua-l after a long time without  
writing, but I've been reading from time to time. I'm still alive,  
but busy with University work.
