After that, I was wondering about the following fact: "make menuconfig" for kernel 2.4.4 showed (what seems to be correct) for ATA/IDE the same kernel configuration, as it was shown in 2.2.19, when using the 2.2.19 ".config". But: 2.4.4 "make xconfig" using the 2.2.19 .config showed a disabled ATA/IDE configuration. Only after saving the 2.4.4 configuration produced by "make menuconfig", then the configuration for ATA/IDE was correctly displayed by "make xconfig".
