(the default 5.1.1 make produces no shared libs?)

Hmm, weird. 5.0 does it when you do "make so soinstall".

the Makefile provided with the source for lua-5.1.1 contains no specification for building a shared library, only for building liblua.a

I assume this is to encourage the use of static linking? I've seen some references to increased performance by avoiding position-independent code.
