is CONFIG_APUS sufficiently deceased to be removed?

since a couple relatively recent commits show support for APUS being
ripped out of powerpc:

[POWERPC] Remove APUS support from arch/ppc

Current status of APUS:
- arch/powerpc/: removed in 2.6.23
- arch/ppc/: marked BROKEN since 2 years

This therefore removes the remaining parts of APUS support from
arch/ppc, include/asm-ppc, arch/powerpc and include/asm-powerpc.

[POWERPC] Remove the dregs of APUS support from arch/powerpc

APUS (the Amiga Power-Up System) is not supported under arch/powerpc
and it's unlikely it ever will be. Therefore, this patch removes the
fragments of APUS support code from arch/powerpc which have been
copied from arch/ppc.

A few APUS references are left in asm-powerpc in .h files which are
still used from arch/ppc.

is it safe to assume that references to that non-existent Kconfig
variable can be tossed?

sound/oss/dmasound/dmasound_paula.c:#ifdef CONFIG_APUS [well, i'd ignore this one]

and i'm guessing this can be nullified as well, yes? no?
