--- Comment #3 from Basile-z <b2.t...@gmx.com> ---
Possibly caused by https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/11427.
Based on this slightly modified TC:

---
struct Stuff {
    size_t c;         // declare after items and not crash !
    ubyte[1] items;
}


void grow(ref Stuff stuff) {
    with (stuff)
    {
        const oldCapacity = c;
        items.ptr[0..oldCapacity] = items.ptr[0..0]; // use literal 0 instead
of
        items.ptr[0] = 0;                            // oldcapacity and no
crash !
    }
}

void main() {
    Stuff stuff;
    grow(stuff);
}

before (2.092):

_D7example4growFKSQq5StuffZv:
                push    RBP
                mov     RBP,RSP
                sub     RSP,020h
                mov     -8[RBP],RDI
                mov     RAX,-8[RBP]
                mov     -018h[RBP],RAX
                mov     -018h[RBP],RAX
                mov     RCX,[RAX]
                mov     -010h[RBP],RCX
                mov     RDX,-010h[RBP]
                lea     RSI,8[RAX]
                mov     RDI,RSI
                mov     -020h[RBP],RSI
                call      memcpy@PLT32   ; memcpy
                mov     RAX,-020h[RBP]

                leave
                ret

cg after (2.084.2):

_D7example4growFKSQq5StuffZv:
                push    RBP
                mov     RBP,RSP
                sub     RSP,020h
                mov     -8[RBP],RDI
                mov     RAX,-8[RBP]
                mov     -018h[RBP],RAX
                mov     -018h[RBP],RAX
                mov     RCX,[RAX]
                mov     -010h[RBP],RCX
                lea     RSI,8[RAX]
                mov     RCX,-010h[RBP]
                mov     RDI,RSI
                test    RCX,RCX
                je      $+7h            ; debug, break here, set ZF to 0 and no
crash !
                mov     -020h[RBP],RSI  ; b/c then the address that will end up
in RAX is valid
                rep
                movsb
                mov     RAX,-020h[RBP]
                mov     byte ptr [RAX],0 ; by default here RAX is null, crash
                leave
                ret
                add     [RAX],AL

I think that the jump is generated here :
