In my environment, this patch is working properly.
The output is as follows:
hiromu@hiromu-MacBook:/usr/src/linux-2.6$ ls -ld .
dr-xr-sr-x 25 hiromu hiromu 4096 May 24 21:41 .
hiromu@hiromu-MacBook:/usr/src/linux-2.6$ make defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig'
*** Permission denied to write the configuration.
make[1]: *** [defconfig] Error 1
make: *** [defconfig] Error 2
hiromu@hiromu-MacBook:/usr/src/linux-2.6$
