If you look in the /usr/local/share/vim directory you can see that there
are a new subdirectory named after the version of vin you use (at least
that was the case for me) I did symlinks to the /usr/local/share/vim for
all the items in the new directory. Then it started working.
Maybe this is something for the vim port maintainer to look at.
