According to ":help pattern", a word character is defined as [0-9A-Za-z].  When 
I press # or *, the search pattern becomes \<WordUnderCursor\>.  The word 
WordUnderCursor highlights on all windows except for the netrw window (where 
there is a file named WordUnderCursor.m).  However, if I remove the anchors to 
the beginning and end of the word in the search pattern, WordUnderCursor 
becomes highlighted in the netrw window.  I did not think that netrw redefined 
some setting representing word characters (e.g, perhaps isword) to include the 
dot in WordUnderCursor.m, and I confirmed that there is not isword option.

How does netrw prevent \<WordUnderCursor\> from matching WordUnderCursor.m, and 
is there a way to prevent this prevention?
