 Are those #s really in your config files?  They shouldn't be, apache won't
 treat them as comments. 
 
 At any rate, the ip comparison is definately done versus remote_ip, which
 is always in numeric form.  And I use this all the time so I'm unsure how
 it's not working in your case.  Can you try some different orderings of
 the access list?  Maybe eliminate everything except this one case.
