Well tell them to fix that, or you'll never get access to "* or "+ from Vim.

It is so much easier and predictable to build & install vim from
sources youself, (with exactly the features you need), than hunt
package-maintiners and expect them to fine-tune binary packages
to your inquiries/needs/wishes. Unless you are package-maintiner
yourself, why would they follow your preferences rather than, say,
their own preferences ?

Look like the pat of Sean Reifschneider's problem is that
he never tried to build vim from the sources despite the fact
that it's very easy.
