Yes, I tried it but I still think it could be feature.
Consider such example

//START
  #macro fooTexture()
    texture { pigment { rgb y } }
    #if (Condition)
      #declare TMP=texture{ pigment{ rgb x } }
    #end
    texture{ pigment { rgb z } }
  #end
  #declare foo_texture = fooTexture()
//END

Tell me (without parsing) what should be last line of the macro - second leyer
of the first texture or second leyer of texture TMP ? Perhaps to avoid such
cases parser forbids any # which can leads to such situation. As Warp said You
in beta-test group SDL could be changed in this part and it is one of our
wishes for 4. Similiar limitation appear in case of such simple script:

//START
  #if(#if(yes)yes#end)#end
//END
