Description

I noticed that when you build ATS with a non-default prefix, you end up with unexpected Lua package paths.

For example, this is what I had for package.path:

./?.lua;/n/trafficserver/share/luajit-2.0.4/?.lua;/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/?.lua;/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/?/init.lua;/n/trafficserver/share/lua/5.1/?.lua;/n/trafficserver/share/lua/5.1/?/init.lua

Maybe we can think of a way to automatically get the right paths for the platform.
