No, the 68LC040 does have an MMU, or it couldn't run the regular
m68k port of Linux. There is an m68k-nommu in 2.6, but that's
just a side note for this discussion.

The difference between a full 68040 and a 68LC040 is the lack
of an FPU. All 68LC040 chips are lacking the FPU, and most of
the older ones also have some extra bugs that make it a pain
to emulate the FPU like you can on any other 68k chip that
doesn't have a real hardware FPU.
