You don't need LDP on RR as long as clients support "not on lsp" flag (different implementation have different names for it)
The hack needed when running a Junos-based RR in an MPLS network to allow route reflection of l3vpn routes on an RR not running MPLS. For IOS and IOS XE (and IOS XR, I think), this wouldn't be needed as unlike Juniper, Cisco don't treat MPLS signaling protocols as (pseudo) routing protocols.
There are more and more reasons to run RR on a non router HW, there are many reasons to still run commercial code base, mostly feature set and resilience.
