Hmm, I did reproduce this:
$mkdir -p /var/kernels/src/linux-2.6.15 && cd /var/kernels/src/linux-2.6.15
$tar xjf /usr/portage-distfiles/linux-2.6.15.tar.bz2
$make allyesconfig
$ find . -name Kconfig|xargs egrep -h "depends on m | && m" -B2
config SOUND_WAVEFRONT
tristate "Full support for Turtle Beach WaveFront (Tropez Plus,
Tropez, Maui) synth/soundcards"
depends on SOUND_OSS && m && OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER
--
config HOSTESS_SV11
tristate "Comtrol Hostess SV-11 support"
depends on WAN && ISA && m && ISA_DMA_API
--
config COSA
tristate "COSA/SRP sync serial boards support"
depends on WAN && ISA && m && ISA_DMA_API
--
config DSCC4
tristate "Etinc PCISYNC serial board support"
depends on WAN && PCI && m
--
config SEALEVEL_4021
tristate "Sealevel Systems 4021 support"
depends on WAN && ISA && m && ISA_DMA_API

only)"
depends on m && PROC_FS && PCI && BROKEN_ON_SMP
--
config ISDN_DIVAS_MAINT
tristate "DIVA Maint driver support"
depends on ISDN_DIVAS && m
--
config PCMCIA_AHA152X
tristate "Adaptec AHA152X PCMCIA support"
depends on m && !64BIT
--
config PCMCIA_NINJA_SCSI
tristate "NinjaSCSI-3 / NinjaSCSI-32Bi (16bit) PCMCIA support"

So there are things that have to be build as modules??
Didn't know that...

You can try `make allyesconfig` but that will produce huge kernel.
Try better `make allmodconfig` and then manually edit some important stuff
like IDE to be built in. Or use initrd.
BTW, what is G4L ?
