Yes, this is also used to separate e-u (which else is pronounced
"oi" in german). But it occures only in some old names like
"Math�us" or "Amad�us" - and is almost omitted because the
letter is missing on (most) german typewriters / keyboards.

And the acute in your example doesn't even look like a typo
- more like a nose (too much ink), because it isn't quite in
the right position.
