No. Here's what happened with all the reboots: (from messages file)
2.1 configuring with -c
Dec 22 12:14:30 ohio /kernel: ep0      0x300      10    -1    0x0     0        0     0x0        Yes
and I disabled anything that wasn't being found during -c

Booting with 2.1 GENERIC kernel with 'link2' on ifconfig_ep0
Dec 22 12:14:38 ohio /kernel: ep0 not found at 0x300

Booting with 2.1 GENERIC kernel removing 'link2' from ifconfig_ep0
Dec 22 12:19:11 ohio /kernel: ep0 not found at 0x300

2.1 configuring with -c
Dec 22 12:24:28 ohio /kernel: ep0      0x300      10    -1    0x0     0        0     0x0        Yes
Dec 22 12:24:30 ohio /kernel: config> port ep0 300
Dec 22 12:24:30 ohio /kernel: config> irq ep0 10

Booting with 2.1 GENERIC
Dec 22 12:24:35 ohio /kernel: ep0 not found at 0x12c

Booting with 2.1 GENERIC (ok, I'm stubborn)
Dec 22 12:28:41 ohio /kernel: ep0 not found at 0x12c

Booting with 2.0.5 with  port compiled in kernel
CONFIG file has: 
device ep0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 10 vector epintr
Dec 22 12:34:01 ohio /kernel: ep0 at 0x280-0x28f irq 15 on isa
Dec 22 12:34:01 ohio /kernel: ep0: aui/bnc/utp[*AUI*] address 00:20:af:39:0f:1a irq 15

Booting with new 2.1 kernel with port 300 compiled in kernel
(using same   device ep0  line as the 2.0.5 kernel config)
Dec 22 13:00:07 ohio /kernel: ep0 not found at 0x300

Booting with 2.0.5 with  port compiled in kernel
Dec 22 13:03:46 ohio /kernel: ep0 at 0x280-0x28f irq 15 on isa
Dec 22 13:03:46 ohio /kernel: ep0: aui/bnc/utp[*AUI*] address 00:20:af:39:0f:1a irq 15
