It will still be necessary to build the std.ixx source file (to produce std.ifc and std.obj for consumption; we will never ship prebuilt IFCs/OBJs for the standard modules). It takes maybe 3-5 seconds and doesn't need to be rebuilt until you change your compiler options or upgrade your toolset. Build system support for doing this automatically is a work in progress.
Although we have test coverage running that exercises every header of the Standard Library through `import std;`, we're still working on fixing various compiler bugs, especially in complicated scenarios (e.g. using Ranges through modules). My hope is that the experience will be solid by the time that VS 2022 17.5 is released for production.
