In what way would this be of interest to Buildroot?

Since this is "for OpenWRT", I fail to see the relevance to Buildroot.

This is not correct:
  - most of the files have a license header that do not reference the
    LGPLv2.1, but which I did not recognise  [0]
  - some have a BSD-3c license: avl.c
  - at least one file is GPLv2: md5.c

Maybe that could be made conditional on whether lua is enabled or not?
