c-mode : can't expand '#d' to '#define'

[Jeff Rancier]

Hello All:

In c-mode, I have the following:

(defconst c-expand-list  '(
    ("#d"  "#define ")
    ("d"   "do\n{\n\n} while();" (6 15))
    ("de"  "default:")
   )  "Expansions for C mode" )

(defun c-mode-expand-add-hooks ()
  (expand-add-abbrevs c-mode-abbrev-table c-expand-list))

(add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'c-mode-expand-add-hooks)

When I type #d followed by a space, I get the do expansion.   Can anyone
explain this?

Thanks,
Jeff
