Ah.  But that quotestr command was not in the extract you posted earlier.

Anyway, I can now reproduce.  Without fiddling with any nanorc file,
a simple reproduction recipe is:

  echo "        #what word word"  >oneline
  nano --ignore --break --fill=20 --quote="^([[:blank:]]*#)+"  oneline

(There are eight spaces before the "#what".)  Then type <Tab>.  All the
words disappear into the void.  Typing M-U brings back some random junk.

The terminal's tab size does not seem to matter.  When using -T4 with
nano, things seem to work fine for the first <Tab>, but then "#what"
disappears upon the second <Tab>.

I've rereported the bug at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57422.
