This happened...

Port Directory: /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810
This port is marked BROKEN.
Does not compile.
If you are sure you can build it remove BROKEN line in the
Makefile and try again.
Update for xf86-video-i810-1.6.5.3 failed.
Aborting update.
Update for xorg-drivers-7.3 failed.
Aborted update.
Surely, unless the BROKEN file is sorted then the uprade will fail. leaving my system in a volatile state?
