Please note that the tutorial you cite belongs to the GRASS GIS
*addon* r.in.pdal which is a Python script.
You can install it with

g.extension r.in.pdal

and it does not require any recompilation of GRASS GIS itself.

(and yes, it is less fancy and slower than the upcoming C
implementation by Maris which you downloaded via PR).

This is a data problem but can be handled.

The local PDAL installation is fine for the r.in.pdal *addon*.

HTH,

Markus
