Please provide as much info as possible to make my life easier. I'm just
looking at the wxLua code I have and the LuaJIT code online and this error
makes no sense to me.

I vaguely remember reading that LuaJIT provides its own bit32 lib and
there's at least a declaration of it here.
http://repo.or.cz/w/luajit-2.0.git/blob/HEAD:/src/lualib.h

wxLua only added the bit32 lib for 5.1 since 5.2 already had it. I have
blindly added a check for LuaJIT to not add it there either.

Let me know if it works for you.
