Anything with an MVP3 or MVP4 chipset.

Note, there was still an industrial variant of that DFI board in production until recently:

Chances are some of those got out as well. Have fun scoring one.

the mainboard's cache will become L3 cache if you use a cpu with L2 cache on-die (K6-III, K6-2+, K6-III+). so if you really want to get a K6-x+ the onboard cache is of lesser importance. K6-x+ BIOS support isn't necessary in the first place because we have Jan's expertise in BIOS patching :) and as edwin already stated: anything with a VIA MVP3 is fine. i would also consider the ALi Aladdin V as it's nearly on par with the VIA MVP3.

i just list AT boards here, as i think you might use your old case:
FIC VA-503+ (VIA MVP3)
ASUS P5A-B (ALI Aladdin5)
Enmic NMC-5VM5 (VIA MVP3)
Soltek SL54U5 (VIA MVP3)
Commate S7AX (ALI Aladdin5)
Gigabyte GA-5AA (ALI Aladdin5)
Epox EP-58 MVP3C-M (ALI Aladdin5)
FIC VA-503A (VIA MVP3)
Shuttle HOT-591P (VIA MVP3)
PC Partner VIB878DS (VIA MVP3)
Matsonic MS6260S (ALI Aladdin5)
some PCChips boards

far from being a complete list, just some nice boards. take a look around at the huge online auctioneer and return with some boards you might want to get (PM them..)
