=09We named it luaL_module, but at compat-5.1.h there is:

#define luaL_openlib luaL_module

=09Therefore I think there is no need to rewrite anything.
Just add

#include "compat-5.1.h"

=09after #including "lauxlib.h".  We have done this in all Kepler
libraries.
=09Now that Roberto implemented those things officially, we
might revise the code and we'll try to converge into a single
implementation.  There are two main goals on Compat-5.1: the use of
a standard method for creating and loading packages, AND reduce the
work on adequating the libraries to Lua 5.1.

=09Tomas
