LexingError on the line following a line starting with an octothorp

[soulcutter]

Given a file named test.feature with:

Feature: lexing error from octothorpe

    # foo
    You will get a LexingError on this line

When I run cucumber test.feature
Then the output contains:

Lexing error on line 4: '    You will get a LexingError on this line'. See http://wiki.github.com/cucumber/gherkin/lexingerror for more information. (Gherkin::Lexer::LexingError)

I did notice in the aruba readme it mentions escaping some markdown/gherkin clashes, but I don't think this particular case should result in a LexingError. If it's legit to have some error (I'm not so certain it is), it should be on the line with the octothorp. TBH I'm not sure aruba's escaping advice is valid, but figured I'd mention it since it specifically called out the gherkin does something with # lines.

Oh, and this was with:
