Installing libreadline (or maybe the libreadline-dev on your distro) 
really would fix this compilation-issue. However since the libreadline is only
needed for the lua-standalone interpreter, which we don't use in Nmap, I'll
try to find a way to skip its compilation.

Thanks for the catch.
The error occurs, because the compiler can't find the lua-include files - I
can reproduce it if I pass --with-liblua=included. - I'll try to commit a 
fix for this.

Since you have lua installed on your system, it would be interesting to
know wheter (and where) your distro installs the lua-headers, or wheter it
provides a lua developers package (on my debian etch the package is called
liblua5.1-0-dev).
