Are you sure it happens when you build your program in Release mode?

The liblas.lib is for Release mode only and the behaviour you're
describing is likely to happen while building in Debug mode.
Please, remember that the official binaries of libLAS for Windows
are prepared in Release mode only. It is not possible to provide
users with Debug version of binaries.

Yes, building it on your own is the best option, in fact.

Thanks, I'll commit this update.

Yes, I suppose it is a typo.

Hobu, is it?
