Hello, try this:

The call to proc1() gens a SEGFAULT after the first RET.
Remove the call to proc1() and it works.

Why that ?

One of the problems is that "naked" is missing in your assembly. If you write

asm pure nothrow
{
     naked;
     mov RAX, 1;
     ret;
     nop;nop;nop;nop;nop;nop;nop;
     mov RAX, 2;
     ret;
}

writeln(proc1()) works. Without "naked" dmd generates the prologue and epilogue for your function. Inside the assembly you return from the function without restoring the stack. It causes the segfault. So you have to write the prologue before returning or use nacked assembly. With "naked" and "Proc proc2 = cast(Proc) (cast(void*)proc1 + 8);" the example works.
