can everything related to OSS's DMASOUND_PMAC get whacked?

["Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@mindspring.com>]

  (apologies for not asking more specifically but i poked a couple
folks and never got a reply.)

  the file sound/oss/dmasound/Makefile makes reference to a
non-existent variable CONFIG_DMASOUND_PMAC:

==========
#
# Makefile for the DMA sound driver
#

dmasound_pmac-y                 += dmasound_awacs.o \
                                   trans_16.o dac3550a.o tas_common.o \
                                   tas3001c.o tas3001c_tables.o \
                                   tas3004.o tas3004_tables.o

obj-$(CONFIG_DMASOUND_ATARI)    += dmasound_core.o dmasound_atari.o
obj-$(CONFIG_DMASOUND_PMAC)     += dmasound_core.o dmasound_pmac.o
obj-$(CONFIG_DMASOUND_PAULA)    += dmasound_core.o dmasound_paula.o
obj-$(CONFIG_DMASOUND_Q40)      += dmasound_core.o dmasound_q40.o
==========

  if one removes that reference and stuff related to it, the snowball
eventually produces the following diffstat:

 sound/oss/dmasound/Makefile          |    6
 sound/oss/dmasound/awacs_defs.h      |  251 -
 sound/oss/dmasound/dac3550a.c        |  209 -

 sound/oss/dmasound/trans_16.c        |  898 ------

so:

  1) thoughts?
  2) what exactly is OSS' status with respect to whether it's worth
investing any time in doing cleanup on it and ripping out unreferenced
content?

thanks.
