I don't know how to solve the problem of translating such things
automagically, and I suspect it's simply impossible.
Aside from this problem, ocaml-lua is a binding of Lua 5.1.x, and 5.2
is not (still) supported. It's not only a matter of some enums, the
language itself changed from 5.1 to 5.2:
http://www.lua.org/manual/5.2/manual.html#8
The work is not so lengthy, but it requires attention (I have to
carefully check the new behaviour wrt. the two garbage collectors) and
it's not on top on my todo list. Do you really need Lua 5.2? :-)
In any case, until ocaml-lua for Lua 5.2 is not out, I strongly
recommend you to link with Lua 5.1, which is present in Debian and
Ubuntu:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/lua5.1
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/lua5.1
