Yes, I think you're right. No good reason I can think of, although
since it's unlikely that any program is going to look for the tag
"#default_realm", it's pretty close to a comment functionally....
Please file a bug report (krb5-bugs@mit) if you think it should be
changed to be an official comment syntax.
