Anyone successful in using vimmanpager as MANPAGER?

I keep getting ANSI control char gobbledegook in "man man" if I use
the provided vimmanpager script (USE="vimpager" emerge
app-editors/vim)

However, I tried Rafael Kitover's vimpager replacement from here:
https://github.com/rkitover/vimpager

... copy the new "vimpager" to /usr/local/bin

... and set PAGER=/usr/local/bin/vimpager

... and it works! "man man" now properly colored, and I even tried
"diff -u file1 file2 | vimpager", also works nicely.

Any comments on why the provided vimpager/vimmanpager of
app-editors/vim can no longer properly colorize "man man"?
