Except for the fact that the compilation doc is only valid for the unreleased source code version, not the last release of 1.2.1 (there was no compilation doc for that).

There isn't any reason to be scared of the development version of libLAS.  It's in flux a bit, but a number of issues that existed in the 1.2.x release have been fixed.  I'm still targeting August for a release of the new (1.6) version of libLAS.
