kbuild-2.5 on 2.4.19-pre10-ac2 build error when modular support turned off

I had a kernel built and working fine with module support turned on, only a
single driver (ide-floppy) compiled as a module. I then did "make -f
Makefile-2.5 menuconfig" and turned off loadable module support, kmod and
double-checked that ide-floppy changed to built-in (it did).

I then did "make -f Makefile-2.5 -j2 installable", and kbuild rebuilt very
little, and the final link died with failed references to "request_module".
It appears that kbuild did not rebuild the entire kernel, even though would
have been necessary.

Did I miss something?
