You would not link every future shared library against liblua.a; you
would link them against liblua.so (which may be a symlink to
liblua.so.5.1 or somesuch).  Whether you have to specify the path to
liblua.so on the command line probably depends on the linker.  I know
nothing about AIX, but with the GNU linker, if you specify -llua, the
linker first looks for liblua.so, then liblua.a.  If that's not so with
the AIX linker, then you'll probably have to specify the path to
liblua.so when building shared libraries.
