What has been replaced was PKM, which has been dropped for a member of
the KODAK SELECT Series, KM. From Kodak's own web site:
http://kodak.com/cgi-bin/webCatalog.pl?product=KODACHROME+25+Professional+Film+(PKM)&cc=US&lc=en
we have:

Note: KODACHROME 25 Film (KM), a member of the KODAK SELECT Series,
will replace KODACHROME 25 Professional Film (PKM) in mid-1999.
