Comment (by GarrettAlbright):

 And I just confirmed this can be replicated on my M1 MBA (so this isn't
 exclusive to the mini at my office) with no other ports installed except
 those necessary for `luarocks`:
 {{{
 Warhead ~% port installed
 No ports are installed.

     To make this the default LuaRocks (i.e., the version run by the

 Warhead ~% sudo port select --set luarocks lua51-luarocks
 Selecting 'lua51-luarocks' for 'luarocks' succeeded. 'lua51-luarocks' is
 now active.
