Go into the MacVim Advanced Preferences, deselect "Draw marked text inline" and restart MacVim. The downside to this is that when you e.g. type alt+e, e, you won't see any text until you hit that final e _if_ you are using the experimental renderer (the default renderer does not have this problem).
