I doubt this is a working solution. The comment means, that there is no
need to include a separate module if CMake to be used is greater than
3.5. With your code, fatal error is raised in that case. I have CMake
3.20 on my local machine and LuaJIT fails to be built with your check
added (I've fixed the typo in the version number).

Ignoring for now.
