Thanks, Malkia!

With Lua for Windows we want to move away from the MS runtimes, which
are a lot of trouble for the project. (The MS 2005 compiler is in any
case old and we would need to move away from it anyway).  It would be
good to offer LuaJIT as an alternative implementation.

Well, one can get a decent 32-bit build of LuaJIT with mngw, but not
for 64-bit, due to limitations of the 64-bit Windows gcc port.

Which is why I picked up on the '32-bit only';  would it be possible
to persuade MS 2010 64-bit version (say) to link against msvcrt?
