In vim netrw using mf, how to highlight file with name starting by '.' dot symbol?

When trying to mf mark files named .* in netrw, vim provides no visual feedback. Is there a way to fix this?

    Fixed by updating vim with

    $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fcwu-tw/ppa
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install vim
