Looks like nobody noticed when it changed from a bool to a tristate in
2006...

^1da177e (Linus Torvalds    2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700  31) config
DEV_APPLETALK
9cac2c35 (David S. Miller   2006-07-30 20:20:54 -0700  32)      tristate
"Appletalk interfaces support"
^1da177e (Linus Torvalds    2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700  33)      depends
on ATALK
^1da177e (Linus Torvalds    2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700  34)      help
^1da177e (Linus Torvalds    2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700  35)
AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
^1da177e (Linus Torvalds    2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700  36)        on a
network.  If your Linux box is connected to such a network, and wish
^1da177e (Linus Torvalds    2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700  37)        to do
IP over it, or you have a LocalTalk card and wish to use it to
^1da177e (Linus Torvalds    2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700  38)
connect to the AppleTalk network, say Y.

This isn't the first time this has happened...
