Ah yes. That was the trick. My conf.modules had block-major-3 and 22 set
to "off", that's why I set them to ide-disk and ide-cd to make modprobe
autoload them. Setting them to ide-probe or commenting them out at all
works (it's also mentioned in the docs, shame on me)

Hm, it was compiled and installed with make modules modules_install by
default. My .config for the IDE stuff:
#
# Floppy, IDE, and other block devices
#
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE=m
#
# Please see Documentation/ide.txt for help/info on IDE drives
#
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE is not set
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDETAPE=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEFLOPPY=m
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI is not set
