Lines starting with hashs

Hello,

Thanks for your module. I'm currently testing it and facing the following problem : lines starting with # are not ignored if they have the scheme # .{1,3} .{1,3} ...:

$ cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root
...
# For example, you can run a backup of all your user accounts
# at 5 a.m every week with:
# 0 5 * * 1 tar -zcf /var/backups/home.tgz /home/
# 
# For more information see the manual pages of crontab(5) and cron(8)
# 
# m h  dom mon dow   command
MY_ENV="BLABLA"
@yearly ls /
1 2 3 4 5 cd /
In [1]: from crontab import CronTab                                                                                                                                                                                              
In [2]: cron=CronTab(user=True)
In [3]: for job in cron: 
   ...:     print(job) 
   ...:                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
# # at 5 a.m every week with:
0 5 * * 1 tar -zcf /var/backups/home.tgz /home/
MY_ENV=BLABLA
# m h  dom mon dow   command
@yearly ls /
1 2 3 4 5 cd /

Shouldn't the regex specifies that the line must not start with # ? Or am I missing something fully obvious ?

Thanks !
