This appears to be caused by Jan's Kconfig changes to use menuconfig,
which lost a dependency on BRIDGE:

-menu "Bridge: Netfilter Configuration"
-       depends on BRIDGE && BRIDGE_NETFILTER
-
-config BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES
+menuconfig BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES
         tristate "Ethernet Bridge tables (ebtables) support"
         select NETFILTER_XTABLES
         help
           ebtables is a general, extensible frame/packet identification
           framework. Say 'Y' or 'M' here if you want to do Ethernet
           filtering/NAT/brouting on the Ethernet bridge.

Does this patch fix it?
