Well, providing precompiled binary packages for the Linux is not a standard
way for their distribution, for many reasons. On Linux you usually either use
packages provided by your Linux distribution(thus you don't need anything like
LuaForWindows) or compile them yourself. For the latter there're LuaRock and
LuaDist projects which might help you getting the binaries you're looking for.

For the next planned release there's a small Readme file which might help you
little bit https://github.com/ynezz/librs232/blob/next/README.md

Good luck.
