Hello all! I want to build ldc cross compiller. I found this

Particularly interested in the patch

Maybe somewhere I found patch for ldc-1.1.0?
Maybe someone already build cross ldc for linux x86_64?))
Hi Oleg,
first of all, we have an LDC forum/NG
(http://forum.dlang.org/group/ldc) which would be more
appropriate for your question. The referenced LDC patch is
derived from https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/pull/1317,
which hasn't been merged yet (but will be in not-too-distant
future).
As you haven't explicitly specified what your target platform is,
I can only assume that it's 32-bit ARM. With a vanilla LDC,
cross-compiling to ARM with its double-precision reals will only
work correctly if your LDC host compiler uses double-precision
reals too, which isn't the case for Linux x86(_64), but for
Windows. My LDC PR would make it work with a non-Windows x86(_64)
host too, but only if the target (not the host) uses at most
double-precision reals.
