Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I don't know when the next
release will be but I'll fix them when that happens :).

Note, however that the # keybinding missing is in someways a feature, as
these commands are bound to a Meta key combo. In making nethack more emacs
like, this keybinding was discarded on purpose. Also M-x nethack-command-*
is another way to access these extended commands.
