Hi Markus,
to be honest I not exactly know the answer, but I could show you a way how I would find it out.
Open the config file, search for the string "CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC". Then scroll up till you find an header in this case

#
# Processor type and features
#

Now start make menuconfig, goto "Processor type and features" and look for an similar topic, i.e. "IO_APIC support on uniprocessors" or 
"Local APIC support on uniprocessors" sound similar to me. I tried the second. Save the config-file and have a look if CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC is changed. Voila - the problem is solved.

At least it should be possible to edit the config file by hand, but I supposed that you should only do this if you be sure what you do.
