We should remove the 5.1 check from configure,
until ELinks properly supports that version.

The relevant part is:

| configure:17660: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall     -rdynamic conftest.c -llua -llualib -lm -ldl  -lz -lbz2 >&5
| ld: table of contents for archive: /usr/local/lib/liblualib.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)

That may be fixable by running (possibly as root):
ranlib /usr/local/lib/liblualib.a

However, this should have happened automatically when you installed Lua:
lua-5.0/config:137: RANLIB= ranlib
lua-5.0/Makefile:78:         @echo "RANLIB = $(RANLIB)"
lua-5.0/src/lib/Makefile:12: T= $(LIB)/liblualib.a
lua-5.0/src/lib/Makefile:16: $T:	$(OBJS)
lua-5.0/src/lib/Makefile:17: 	$(AR) $@ $(OBJS)
lua-5.0/src/lib/Makefile:18: 	$(RANLIB) $@

So, it would be interesting to see your Lua build log too.

| gcc: unrecognized option `-rdynamic'

That you can ignore.

| conftest.c: In function `main':
| conftest.c:132: warning: implicit declaration of function `luaL_newstate'
| conftest.c:132: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast

Those happen because GCC found <lua.h> of Lua 5.1 and it does
#define lua_open()	luaL_newstate()
and ELinks does not #include <lauxlib.h>, which declares luaL_newstate.

So please try with Lua 5.0 headers.
