I think you're better off staying with the official release, which for
now is 7.1, although I expect 7.2 will be out by the end of this month.
For the LS Pro, which is almost the same as the LS Live, I found the
following steps to be critical wrt GD (note, your paths could be
different from what I have):

1. after running build-perl-modules.pl, edit modules.conf to use GD
2.34 instead of 2.35

2. try running the scanner manually, via:
sudo perl /usr/share/squeezecenter/scanner.pl --debug

3. if step #2 returns an error about "loaded 2.35, need 2.34" do the
following:
sudo rm -r /usr/share/squeezecenter/CPAN/GD
sudo rm /usr/share/squeezecenter/CPAN/GD.pm

This was gleaned from the thread you mentioned, plus some
experimentation. 

One other thing that may be important is that the instructions and my
experience are based on LSs that have been opened with FreeLink. If you
haven't done that, it might help here, and would definitely help down
the road. Having the apt-get/aptitude utility for installing software
packages cleanly is well worth the temporary palpitations from waiting
to see if the reflashing to FreeLink will brick the LS.
