Stupid question: have you run lilo after installing the new kernel?

Usually, disabling CONFIG_SMP should disable all APIC related options:
http://lxr.linux.no/source/arch/i386/config.in#L82
However, there is also a CONFIG_X86_GOOD_APIC option that I don't know:
http://lxr.linux.no/source/arch/i386/config.in#L32
Try to disable it.
Sorry, but I'm also stuck. I can't help you further.
