It's the scheme way to write multiline comments (possibly other lisps?). It's specified in the R6RS.

Also Common Lisp, and this reminds me that this is something I missed when working on some Arc code.

#| ... |# works in Arc too. Though whether by design or because mzscheme supports it, I don't know.
