like some sort of gdal-config app or just a lib function that returns an
int "level" code? (or both?)   Part of (eg) 'las2las --help' text?

I am just thinking about end-users who had nothing to do with the compile
and so are at the mercy of READMEs being accurate & aware. e.g. I hope
that the DebianGIS team (or anybody) can officially package liblas for
Debian & Ubuntu users who wouldn't know to check.


fwiw, IMO consistent methodology is the only path to software sanity.
but you can't make everyone happy that way :)
