Errors with Lua on WinXP and minGW

[Ben Aurel <ben.aurel@...>]

hi
I'd like to report some minor problems and workarounds. Maybe the
Makefile for "mingw" should be modified.

In case I do something wrong please tell me so.

Setup
====
- windows xp, (version 5.1, sp3)
- minGW 5.1.3
- gcc version 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3)

Problem 1: Builderrors
=================
 $ make mingw
[this runs OK]
 $ make install
cd src && mkdir -p /usr/local/bin /usr/local/include /usr/local/lib
/usr/local/man/man1 /usr/local/share/lua/5.1 /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1
cd src && install -p -m 0755 lua luac /usr/local/bin
install: cannot change ownership of `/usr/local/bin/lua': No such file
or directory
install: cannot change ownership of `/usr/local/bin/luac': No such
file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1

Workaround
-----------------
Linking the exes:
 $ ln -s /usr/local/bin/lua.exe /usr/local/bin/lua
ln -s /usr/local/bin/luac.exe /usr/local/bin/luac

Problem 2: Runtimeerror
==================
When I run lua from the command line (rvxt) I get an error pop-up
" ... has failed to start because lua51.dll was not found ..."

Workaround
----------------
Copying the dll's manually
  $ mv src/*.dll /usr/local/bin/


thanks
