It is still possible to compile and use i810 driver, just make sure that rigt version of libdrm-2.3.0 is installed (not libdrm-2.3.1), after that edit xf86-video-i810 port Makefile and remove line that contain word BROKEN. i810 is obsolete and it is possible that it will not work at all with newer Xorg servers .... DRM bug with some intel chipsets is fixed in recent CURRENT. For bugs in intel driver - contact xf86-video-intel developers.
