If the first word of a status is a hashtag, then the hashtag doesn't turn into a link. The tag is still added to the vocabulary and the status is listed in a tag feed but no link is generated. (using the statuses tags sub-module). Otherwise the module generates links properly.

The html would look like

 <span class="statuses-content"><p>#what if I make the #<a href="/statuses/term/first">first</a> word a #<a href="/statuses/term/hashtag">hashtag</a></p>
</span>

I've put this under the wrong module. The module I intended to post this under was Statuses (Social Microblog) and specifically the Tag submodule
