Well it looks like it will not happen anytime either. Unless we all get together to vote it to the top. Difficult to reason about proving correctness in the compiler I suppose

Because of our experience based implementing x86 inline assembler and the many correctness issues we’ve faced with it, we don’t recommend that developers use this approach and won’t be implementing this for new architectures.
As a workaround, you can use the Microsoft Assembler for x64 (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hb5z4sxd.aspx) to create an .OBJ file that you can link against.
