There we go again… It seems to introduce enough changes to ship packages
named lua5.1, lua5.2 and lua (as Lua 5.3) in future, sigh.

Yeah. But the more important question is, will it be backwards

introduce incompatibilities.
If it's fully backwards compatible, we can just bump lua-5.2
immediately to 5.3 when it arrives.
