I guess we need to put them in $PREFIX/wxlua so the user just does -I
$PREFIX/wxlua in their Makefiles if they install it and or just -I
path/to/wxlua/modules if they didn't and it'll work both ways.

eg.
modules/lua/include/*.h
modules/wxbind/include/*.h
modules/wxlua/include/*.h
modules/wxluadebug/include/*.h
modules/wxluasocket/include/*.h

go to
$PREFIX/wxlua/include/*.h
$PREFIX/wxlua/wxbind/*.h
$PREFIX/wxlua/wxlua/*.h
$PREFIX/wxlua/wxluadebug/*.h
$PREFIX/wxlua/wxluasocket/*.h

I don't know about the libs, maybe we can give them the same naming
semantics as wxWidgets with our own version number so they won't
conflct with anyone and then just dump them into the $PREFIX/libs.

For example in modules/wxlua/src/Makefile

WXLIBBASE  =3D $(shell wx-config --basename)
WXRELEASE  =3D $(shell wx-config --release)

lib$(WXLIBBASE)_wxlua-$(WXRELEASE)
   =3D libwx_gtk2ud_wxlua-2.7.so.1.5.0

LIBVERSION_CURRENT=3D1
LIBVERSION_REVISION=3D5
LIBVERSION_AGE=3D0

Where the 1.5.0 are just currently arbitrarily defined in
modules/wxlua/src/Makefile. How can we define these to be available
for both the Makefiles and also the C++ code so we don't have to have
them defined over and over again?

Can we have it point to both? We need to make a release once we get it
to compile everywhere. Maybe in the next month.
