Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 Yes, it's a lot more work. But it is MacPorts convention that when ports
 are named fooXY, fooXY, etc., where XY and XZ are number, then the ports
 shall be simultaneously installable. The lua50 port already breaks this
 convention and I want to fix that error, not perpetuate it.

 I am currently working on updating the lua port to 5.2.3 (#42892) and in
 the process discovering what a mess the build system is... After I get a
 basic update to 5.2.3 done, I'll see what a reasonable renaming or
 relocating of the files might look like.
