Should we delete support for NOMMU?  As you say, it doesn't get much
testing, or presumably usage.  I have this quote from #m68k a couple of
years ago...

(i suspect Zephyr would also be good, but it doesn't support m68k, just
arc, arm, arm64, mips, openrisc, renesas rx, riscv, sparc, x86 and xtensa)
