Word on the street is that Dave's full roll cage actually cracked and deformed from this incident, but the deformation was not to the extent that the cage failed to provide full protection to the driver. This is bringing a heightened awareness not only to Boxster roll cage design, but material selection and quality of the build also. Your roll cage may only be as good as the person who designed, built, and installed it, so select a builder carefully as your life might be dependent on the skill/quality of their welds.
