   - A mangled symbol name referring to the item is substituted into the asm template string.
   - The substituted string does not include any modifiers (e.g. GOT, PLT, relocations, etc).
   - `<path>` is allowed to point to a `#[thread_local]` static, in which case the asm code can combine the symbol with relocations (e.g. `@plt`, `@TPOFF`) to read from thread-local data.
+* `const <expr>`
+  - `<expr>` must be an integer constant expression. This expression follows the same rules as inline `const` blocks.
+  - The type of the expression may be any integer type, but defaults to `i32` just like integer literals.
+  - The value of the expression is formatted as a string and substituted directly into the asm template string.

 This is significant if two outputs point to the same place: that place will contain the value of the rightmost output.
