Just quick look at net/ipv4/netfilter/Config.in explains everything:
: if [ "$CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK" != "y" ]; then
: if [ "$CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES" != "y" ]; then
: tristate 'ipchains (2.2-style) support' CONFIG_IP_NF_COMPAT_IPCHAINS
CONFIG_IP_NF_COMPAT_IPCHAINS depends on CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK being
disabled. And it seems to be intentional...
