With DMD 2.076 beta or ~master run --- #!dmd -betterC extern(C) int main(char** args, int argc) { assert(0 == 42); return 0; } --- To see: > Assertion `a == 42' failed. I suppose that the right most expression delimiter should also be a backtick.

The C runtime library's assert failure function is called, and that function decides how to format the message. D can't do anything about it. The bug should be refiled with the C compiler vendor.
