The equivalent r.in.lidar is now available in GRASS 7. It behaves exactly like r.in.xyz, but takes LAS files as input. Additionally, all bugs mentioned in the r.in.xyz manual should be fixed in r.in.lidar and can easily be ported to r.in.xyz. In the long(mid?)-term, r.in.xyz and r.in.lidar should be merged, as described in the r.in.xyz TODO.
