i too think that "*.pd_lua" would be the best choice, even though 
*.pd_linux" seems to be deprecated in feavour of *.l_i386/*.l_ia64;
since the lua-scripts are supposed to be platform&architecture 
independent the "l" and "${arch}" part so not make much sense, so i 
guess *.pd_lua is the best choice.

(the point of this email is mainly, that *.pd_linux,... is not 
necessarily the best template to build on, even though in this case it is)
