Mathias 'Corto' Parnaudeau seems to object to that:
"
l'AmigaOne X1000, conçu par la société Varisys, ex-client de PA Semi et détenteur d'un stock de processeurs à ressusciter."

Google translation:
"
the Amiga X1000, designed by the company Varisys, former PA Semi client and holder of a stock of processors to be resurrected."

That article also claims that the PA6T does not need a Southbridge while the X1000 has an AMD SB600 onboard.
Its a well written article, but I still find Varisys to be an unlikely source for PA6Ts.
