Should poudriere skip (IGNORE) a port marked BROKEN?

Hi!

[ports marked BROKEN are build in poudriere and fail]

This is by design, there are two places:

/usr/local/share/poudriere/testport.sh

and

/usr/local/share/poudriere/bulk.sh

where TRYBROKEN=yes is exported, so that /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
starts the build anyway.

When I try to debug if I use BROKEN in the right manner,
I edited the testport.sh or bulk.sh script not to set TRYBROKEN 8-}
