On this link you will see three pictures of the MicroA1 "Industrial" motherboard: http://lain.ziaspace.com/~ryu/a1. On the pictures you can see that it still uses the ArticiaS northbridge, as well as the VIA 686B southbridge, but a standalone Sil0680 IDE controller is there as well.

As far as I understand, it has been a quite common way to get an AGP slot on motherboards with non-AGP northbridges in the past, present and also as you say, in current and future PCI Express systems for backwards compatibility. And it works like a charm!
