I'm running potato with customized 2.2.17pre6 or something like that.
And here cannot be compiled as a module but compiled into the kernel.

There is a good documentation to it.
the kernel configure option is IP aliasing support under Networking options.

I don't know how it is handled in earlier kernels, but afaik in 2.2.x it is as said above compiled into the kernel and not a module.
