Refuse to run if the last bit of the destination path contains a # character.
This is a silly workaround for a rather serious bug in MacOSX: if you take a long filename and convert it to an FSSpec the fsspec gets a magic cooky (containing a #, indeed). If you then massage the extension of this fsspec and convert back to a pathname you may end up referring to the same file. This could destroy your sourcefile. The problem only occcurs in MacPython-OS9, not MacPython-OSX (I think). Closes bug #505562.
