has it since been fixed? (I've never tried cvsup, but
will if it will help me with phpMyAdmin).

Yes, it has been fixed, thank you very much. Update your ports tree using cvsup to get the fixes.

You can look here:

    http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/databases/phpmyadmin/

or here:

    http://www.freshports.org/databases/phpmyadmin/

to see the current status of the port.

phpMyAdmin has not been 'marked as broken' since I've been maintaining it. However it has had a whole series of security alerts come out against it in recent months, each of which have required the phpMyAdmin team to make a corresponding series of point releases. The phpMyAdmin port is usually updated within a few days of the upstream update coming out.

Don't confuse 'BROKEN', which has a specific meaning in ports Makefiles with the effects of portaudit(1). That, if you've got it installed, will prevent you from installing a port version with known vulnerabilities unless you jump through the right hoops.

        Cheers,

        Matthew
