           Summary: spec does not mention that inline asm is a valid
                    "return" statement.
           Product: D
           Version: 1.043
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: spec
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: www.digitalmars.com
        AssignedTo: bugzilla@digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: tomas@famolsen.dk


The spec on return mentions that:
"At least one return statement, throw statement, or assert(0) expression is
required if the function specifies a return type that is not void. "

However, in the inline asm docs the following example is there:

int foo(int x)
{
    asm
    {
    mov EAX,x[EBP]    ;  // loads value of parameter x into EAX
    mov EAX,x    ;  // does the same thing
    }
}


And DMD indeed allows inline asm to specify the return value, we've even had to take the time to emulate this undocumented behaviour in LDC. It should be in the spec, or there should be an assert(0) inserted after the inline asm!
