Yes, this is still the case. A particularity of DMD inliner is
that it does its job in the front-end, so inlining asm is
totally impossible. Then, even if inlining was done in the
backend inlining of asm would not be guaranteed because the
byte code is generated at a very late stag, which causes
problem with the registry allocator, the preservation of the
stack, etc.
For example ldc2 does not inline a trival asm func

As for now, I know no compiler that can do that.
What? Not even GCC or Clang? Someone said that LDC2 does it with
two ways in the thread I linked
