How do statically compiled programs for x86 platforms

I'm pretty sure they work fine. Someone with more knowledge of Linux
binaries needs to comment on how we could best do this, though.
And what about more "exotic" platforms like
ARM (which can also be
multi-endian, IXP4xx is an example) / SPARC (Toolserver!!!) or PowerPC? Are
they actually supported by Lua?
Lua is designed to be extremely portable IIRC, across both
architectures and compilers.
The webhoster hosting our school's homepage does,
for example... They host
all schools in Munich, and I think they're a bit security-paranoid.
That's not a shared host. They can easily install Lua themselves.
