I wouldn't think you would have any problems with the latest stable, but I can't imagine why you would want to deviate. I've done LFS a few times and in my experience it's best to take the minimal (straight LFS and don't even look at BLFS) approach the first time through. While building a working/bootable system isn't too tough following the directions deviating from those instructions can do surprising things. tl;dr - If you don't already understand what all the pieces of the system do, stick to the book for the first attempt.
