No, it's outdated and shouldn't be followed.  The next ldc 1.4 
beta will support cross-compiling the stdlib for arbitrary 
platforms, provided the requisite llvm CPU backend is included:

https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/pull/2253

I'm going to submit a PR so that all the flags there can be 
boiled down to two options, OS and arch, for platforms that we 
support.  You'll still be able to override anything with custom 
flags or configure it yourself for unsupported platforms.

We'll add some docs for all this on the wiki when it's done, and 
redirect this page to those new instructions.
