Simon: As an (untested) workaround until the bug I describe below is fixed it should work for you if select in the Character devices/Joysticks submenu the "Game port support" to be compiled statically into the kernel instead of compiling it as a module.
The problem is (note that CONFIG_INPUT_GAMEPORT is defined twice with different values):
<-- snip -->
... # # Joysticks # CONFIG_INPUT_GAMEPORT=m ... # # Sound # ... CONFIG_SOUND_ES1371=y ... CONFIG_INPUT_GAMEPORT=y ...
<-- snip -->
It survives even a "make oldconfig". It's caused by the following in drivers/sound/Config.in:
<-- snip -->
... # A cross directory dependence. The sound modules will need gameport.o compiled in, # but it resides in the drivers/char/joystick directory. This define_tristate takes # care of that. --Vojtech
if [ "$CONFIG_INPUT_GAMEPORT" != "n" ]; then if [ "$CONFIG_SOUND_ESSSOLO1" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_SOUND_ES1370" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_SOUND_ES1371" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_SOUND_SONICVIBES" = "y" ]; then define_tristate CONFIG_INPUT_GAMEPORT y fi fi
<-- snip -->
