It should be BEFORE the @item if you want the link to land you on the
@item line.  if you put it AFTER the @item, you will land on the text
after the @item line.  That matters when @item is in a @table, because
then the @item line typically has some text after the keyword.  In an
@itemize list it might not matter.
