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 -- config NE2000 tristate "NE2000/NE1000 support" depends on NET_ISA || (Q40 && m) || M32R -- config HYSDN tristate "Hypercope HYSDN cards (Champ, Ergo, Metro) support (module 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" depends on m && !64BIT
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 ?
