Can't we make these 34/36/38, respectively, and just do

hint #.Lbti_targets_\targets

here?

That works, the only downside is that it generates more hostile error
messages if you typo the argument, eg:

<instantiation>:4:7: error: immediate must be an integer in range [0, 127].
 hint #.L__bti_targets_d

I don't really mind either way.
