Apologies for this.  Here is a fixed patch.

Subject: [PATCH v2] Fix input of sharp-quoted symbols in Eshell with
 em-extpipe

* lisp/eshell/em-extpipe.el (eshell-parse-external-pipeline): Fix
misinterpreting sharp-quoted symbols as the beginning of single-quoted
strings (Bug#53518).  Add protection against a possible infinite loop.
* test/lisp/eshell/em-extpipe-tests.el (em-extpipe-test-17): New test.
