This sounds like the wrong approach to me. I'd suggest using what I
proposed for the kernel:

> cmd_dtc_cpp = $(CPP) $(cpp_flags) -D__DTS__ -x assembler-with-cpp -o $(dtc-tmp) $< ; \
>         $(objtree)/scripts/dtc/dtc -O dtb -o $@ -b 0 $(DTC_FLAGS) $(dtc-tmp)

The "-x assembler-with-cpp" is what solves the # problem IIRC.
