I'm sorry, no.  Like I've been saying in the SPI thread, and I thought I
had made clear elsewhere:
- This release we move the drivers to depend on BROKEN.  Jagan has a
  patch right now that makes BROKEN make another warning happen, but I'm
  not 100% sure I like this, but also haven't had a chance to try my
  idea of just removing the driver from the build and seeing if the
  boards link, or how hard making them link again is.
- Next release we can remove the _drivers_ that depend on BROKEN.

Yes, this will result in a bunch of boards that aren't nearly so
functional as they would be expected to be.  This in turn might lead to:
- Someone stepping up as they care about the hardware
- Removing of the boards down the line when it's clear no one has been
  using them as there's a big window where generally key drivers aren't
  there anymore.
