Thanks for your patch!

And then the selects can be removed, too, as the symbol is now always
enabled?

I'm wondering how to handle this when another nommu-m68k-classic
platform shows up (again, cfr. the removed 68360 support) , that
would need a different head.S?  Of course that's something to be
solved later...

Note that mmu-m68k-classic (e.g. CONFIG_MMU=y + allnonfig) has the
same problem.  That config does need other fixes too.  E.g. I have
a local patch to make sure NR_IRQS is never zero, but never got to
solve the missing head.o problem in an acceptable way.
