Have you tried ManPageView?  I use the kornshell, but it should work
with bash also:

# man: {{{2
function man
{
gv -c "Man $*" -c "sil! only"
}

then   man printf  brings up ManPageView in vim.  (you can get
ManPageView from
http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#MANPAGEVIEW).

I've got a function defined in my .bashrc as follows:

vman() { man "$@" 2>&1 | col -bx | iconv -c | vim -c 'set ft=man nomod nolist 
nonu nornu' -c 'call Hideme()' -; }

(the above was sent as all one line)

it's the 'col -bx' that removes backspaces -- Hideme is a function in
my .vimrc as follows:

function! Hideme()
setlocal noswapfile
setlocal buftype=nofile
setlocal bufhidden=hide
endfunction

I know this isn't the place for MacVim-specific discussion, but as it's related 
I thought it worth mentioning that MacVim never starts looking for messages on 
channels:
