 I've had a similar experience configuring a custom macppc kernel.
 
 On a machine w/o PCI, the order in which pci* and ppb* attachments are
 elided confuses 'config' causing it to behave as you describe.
 
 Your custom config contains:
 
 [...]
 no pci*	at ppb?
 [...]
 no ppb*	at pci?				# PCI-PCI bridges
 [...]
 
 If you reverse the order of these statements (elide ppb* at pci? before
 eliding pci* at ppb?) 'config' will be happy.
