Stumped by error on "#" prefix marking

Thank you Leonid,

Is there anyway to create an "in-house" depfile.cut that will allow uses of 
# for non-separable prefixes like:
*CHI: re#bueno.
I tried tweaking it adding  *_#_*  to the *: line but I can't get it to 
work. (This requires at least one character before and after the #, right?)
(I need to do a first pass morphemicizing on the main line for reasons 
internal to the project I am working on...)
Thanks
Bruno
