Yes, Tom has removed this option in favorite of just setting
archive_command to a value which then enables the PITR code also.

But as I've seen this isn't discussed to the very end currently.

My 2ct: I'd prefer to have archive_mode in the config as it really makes
clear that this database is archiving. I fear users will not understand
that giving a program for archival will also enable the PITR function.

Greetings, Klaus
