I think your problem is the \b at the beginning. \b matches a word break
(defined as \w\W or \W\w). There would only be a word break before the #
if the preceding character were a \w (that is, [A-Za-z0-9_], and maybe
some other characters depending on your locale).
However, the \b after the "include" is exactly what you want.
