* For the custom build of Python on OS X, this blog post:

    http://t-p-j.blogspot.co.uk/2010/11/lupa-on-os-x-with-macports-python-26.html

which is actually linked to in lupa's own INSTALL.rst file

* For Lua 5.1, the official LuaJIT page:

    http://luajit.org/luajit.html

where I quote:

"""
LuaJIT implements the full set of language features defined by Lua 5.1.
"""

Of course I'd be glad to be proved wrong on both counts.
