I think putting @ in front would be safe. Nobody has complained that “<Tab># . . .” didn’t work. I expect changing them to “<Tab>@# . . .” would be no worse. I think the Posix page was only talking about comment lines that _don’t_ begin with a tab. At least in Gnu and BSD Makes, the @# option seems to work as desired.
