The # appears when *print-level* is exceeded
in pr/pr-str, just as you get "..." when *print-lengtht*
is exceeded:

(pr-str {:foo {:bar {:baz 3}}})
=> "{:foo {:bar {:baz 3}}}"

(set! *print-level* 2)
=> 2

(pr-str {:foo {:bar {:baz 3}}})
=> "{:foo {:bar #}}"

Could it be that a preceding test sets *print-level*? Just a wild guess.

Cheers,

Caspar
