I had some correspondence with the author last year in which he said he would welcome a patch to make luajit build on 64-bit Cygwin.Unfortunately, upstreaming takes time (particularly when dealing with the many misconceptions people have about Cygwin) so I've admittedly been lax in that regard.
I have to send the patch to upstream TeX Live anyway, so I could just copy the luajit author.
2. Why did you use the -fexceptions flag in your build? The build succeeds without that flag, and luajit still works AFAICT. (But I don't really know how to test it.)I'm just taking their word for it: http://repo.or.cz/w/luajit-2.0.git/blob/8715ae6:/src/lj_err.c#l20 In particular, see line 50-55, although perhaps that only applies to ELF?
I'm not sure; I find that discussion ambiguous. On the other hand, there's no mention of -fexceptions or -funwind-tables in the Makefiles, and src/Makefile explicitly says (line 150) that there's probably no need to change CFLAGS.
