Yes, http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Lua.c32 is rather outdated.
Syslinux.asc is a much better source, but still not precise in 6.03.  I
went through it recently, but my changes over 6.03 are not pulled yet.
So the version at
https://github.com/wferi/syslinux/blob/pub/com32/lua/doc/syslinux.asc is
not directly usable either, because it documents unreleased changes.
