Please excuse this email if it shouldn't have gone to the list.

I can't get nmap_lua.cc to build.  I'm not particularly adept at
tracking down compile-time errors otherwise I'd send you a patch.

The make fails on this command:

g++ -c  -Ilibdnet-stripped/include -g -O2 -Wall  -Ilibpcap -Inbase
-Insock/include  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DNMAP_VERSION=\"4.20ALPHA3-LUA\"
-DNMAP_NAME=\"Nmap\" -DNMAP_URL=\"http://www.insecure.org/nmap/\";
-DNMAP_PLATFORM=\"i686-pc-linux-gnu\" -DNMAPDATADIR=
\"/usr/local/share/nmap\" nmap_lua.cc -o nmap_lua.o

The output produced is:

nmap_lua.cc: In function `int init_lua(lua_State*)':
nmap_lua.cc:130: error: `luaL_Reg' does not name a type
nmap_lua.cc:142: error: expected initializer before '*' token
nmap_lua.cc:143: error: `lib' was not declared in this scope

[...long list of similar errors snipped...]

nmap_lua.cc:640: error: `LUA_ENVIRONINDEX' was not declared in this
scope
nmap_lua.cc:640: error: `lua_getfield' was not declared in this scope
nmap_lua.cc:636: warning: unused variable 'luaL_checkinteger'
nmap_lua.cc:640: warning: unused variable 'LUA_ENVIRONINDEX'
make: *** [nmap_lua.o] Error 1


I'm running g++ (GCC) 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9).

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with this
problem.

Brandon
