The config file shows that that one is set:

CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_LOG=m

Here are all the CONFIG_IP_NF_* entries:

CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_CT_ACCT=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_CT_PROTO_SCTP=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_FTP=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_IRC=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_TFTP=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_AMANDA=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_QUEUE=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_FILTER=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_REJECT=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_LOG=m

and all of the CONFIG_NETFILTER*

CONFIG_NETFILTER=y
CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_QUEUE=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XTABLES=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MAC=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MARK=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_PKTTYPE=m
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STATE=m

Here are all the modules in:
  /lib/modules/2.6.16.60-c1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter

ip_conntrack.ko
ip_conntrack_amanda.ko
ip_conntrack_ftp.ko
ip_conntrack_irc.ko
ip_conntrack_proto_sctp.ko
ip_conntrack_tftp.ko
ip_queue.ko
ip_tables.ko
ipt_LOG.ko
ipt_REJECT.ko
iptable_filter.ko

Is something obvious (to you, clearly it isn't to me) missing
which in turn is effectively disabling CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_LOG?
Our other linux systems have many more modules in this directory, but 
for the system in question all we need to do is to restrict access
to certain port/address ranges on the public interface.  No forwarding,
nat, masquerade, etc. are needed.
