Summary: Minor bug in Regular Expression HOWTO

Initial Comment:
Hello!

It looks like there is a minor error in section 3.5 of
Regular Expression HOWTO, in the VERBOSE flag example.
I think that the RE line:

&#
	     # Start of a numeric entity reference

must be:

&\#
	     # Start of a numeric entity reference

i.e., the first `#' must be escaped, or it will be
handled as a comment mark.


Best regards,
Kaloian.
