Ilooked into the configure script and found the following:
  if alsa_check_kconfig_option "hda-input-jack"; then    if ( test "$CONFIG_SND_PCI" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_SND_PCI" = "m" ) &&      ( test "$CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL" ="m" ) &&      ( test "$CONFIG_INPUT" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_INPUT" = "m" ); then      test "$kversion.$kpatchlevel" = "2.6" -a $ksublevel -ge 27 &&CONFIG_SND_JACK="y"      CONFIG_SND_HDA_INPUT_JACK="y"  fi
SND_JACK is set if sublevel >= 27 but SND_HDA_INPUT_JACK is setregardless of anything. Why the lower limit is 27 for that functionality?
