PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
I'm having a problem with wml::fmt::verbatim, specifically the
<verbatim-file> tag.  If the file contains lines beginning with
the '#' character, those lines will be stripped out.  Using
wml's -p option I was able to determine that the lines starting
with '#' were present all the way up until pass eight (HTMLstrip).

I know that wml::fmt::verbatim uses <protect pass=7-9>, but it
doesn't seem to be working. :-)  Thanks!
