I'll try to figure this out.

(Is there any other codec suitable to look at as an example for
colorspace conversion?)

Otherwise, I am playing with Cinepak encoder too (not my code but I
am adding optimizations), the same issue is present there.
I'd like it to produce a compliant stream, not the current one
corresponding to yup420p.
