Description:
------------
Since # character is used as a control character to start comments (in extended mode - the 'x' modifier), it should also be quoted by preg_quote(). Unquoted # character corrupts the pattern in extended mode even after preg_quote() has been applied.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

preg_match('~^(' . preg_quote('hello#world', '~') . ')\z~x', 'hello#world')

Expected result:
----------------
No error, # is properly escaped.

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: preg_match(): Compilation failed: missing ) at offset 16
