Yes,  the rest all look fine to me.

If you think it will take more than, say, a week to get to fixing 850,
then perhaps doing as 845 proposes temporarily is OK.

I'm not too concerned about leaving 845+850 unresolved for
a little while because it's easy enough to work-around, i.e.
 pkg install system/xopen/xcu4

Thanks,
Gordon
