I don't believe this is true.  When I was on a System 75, I used to
dial many international calls, using # as a terminator.  I am sure it
was transmitted, since if I forgot it, the setup was noticeably
longer.

I also recently accessed my Audix system from someone on a System 75,
and used the # a lot.
