Both syntaxes are officially documented in the D Language Reference [1], which is arguably the specification for D the language, but since DMD came much earlier than other implementations, I think it's fair to consider the DSL to be designed alongside with D. Anyway LDC and GCD's inability to support the DSL strengthens my original point. [1] https://dlang.org/spec/iasm.html

LDC also supports most of the extended inline asm.

GDC used to support it (long story but that code is now the LDC impl), but it was removed a long time ago. GDC isn't that much younger than dmd.
