I've grabbed the missing routines from musl libc (and culled some parts of the Lua standard library for the sake of reducing the number of requirements, e.g. io.*), and used venerable Doug Lea's malloc for memory allocations.

The stock Lua 5.1 has the least number of dependencies, so I picked it - the idea is to practice and then to eventually have LuaJIT run on bare metal.



Good luck with it. You are on the path of having Smalltalk. :)
