According to the Makefile:
BROKEN= Installs file in \$${HOME}/.seyon
Ports are apparently not supposed to do that, so marking it
BROKEN is apparently appropriate.
Still, if you don't mind it installing files in a ~/.seyon dir,
then you can still build and use it by removing the line in the
Makefile that marks it BROKEN.
