My as.info file, which is for the as version 2.14.90.0.7 states that you
can use any number, but "the first 10 local labels (`0:'...`9:') are
implemented in a slightly more efficient manner than the others."

So I guess it would be prudent to use these as long as you don't need
more than 10, although I don't think that will ever be the case.
