importC: __asm volatile parsing failure - issue or not?

In fact, this is my first time using importC, so maybe I messed
something up
This is real piece of FreeRTOS header. It contains ARM assembler
instruction and attended to use with GCC:
```
$ cat test.h
__attribute__( ( always_inline ) ) static inline uint8_t
ucPortCountLeadingZeros( uint32_t ulBitmap )
{
uint8_t ucReturn;
__asm volatile ( "clz %0, %1" : "=r" ( ucReturn ) : "r" (
ulBitmap ) : "memory" );
return ucReturn;
}
```
Preprocessing this C header:
```
$ arm-none-eabi-gcc -std=c11 -E test.h -o test_gcc.i
$ cat test_gcc.i
# 0 "test.h"
# 0 "<built-in>"
# 0 "<command-line>"
# 1 "test.h"
__attribute__( ( always_inline ) ) static inline uint8_t
ucPortCountLeadingZeros( uint32_t ulBitmap )
{
uint8_t ucReturn;
__asm volatile ( "clz %0, %1" : "=r" ( ucReturn ) : "r" (
ulBitmap ) : "memory" );
return ucReturn;
}
```
Trying to use it from D:
```
$ dmd test_gcc.i -Hf=test.di

Something went wrong with "__asm volatile" syntax?
