SysFS 'module' params with CONFIG_MODULES=n

On 2.6.14, and probably newer, a system where CONFIG_MODULES=n
/sys/module/foo/parameters/param fails:

# cat /sys/module/tcp_bic/parameters/low_window
cat: /sys/module/tcp_bic/parameters/low_window: Permission denied

But just changing MODULES to y:

# cat /sys/module/tcp_bic/parameters/low_window
14

Is this intentional or fixable?  Just an observation right now, thanks.
