 Indeed, I see that monotone now builds lua 5.1 as a prerequisite.
 Unfortunately it doesn't co-exist with lua 5.2, if that was built for
 some other packages. They both install a "bin/lua" file.

 I have set LUA_VERSION_DEFAULT=3D51 for my next quarterly update cycle.
 A quick check of my installed packages that use lua 5.2 suggests that
 they should also work with 5.1.
 
 At some point in the future there might be a release of monotone which
 works with lua 5.2. It may be a while though...
