Would this prevent the macfb framebuffer console from working in the 
absence of kernel modules?


With the switch to initrd, absence of modules is simply no longer 
supported at all, period.

When something goes wrong, and the kernel messages aren't available to 
tell you what went wrong, then you may lack the information you need to 
support those things that you are willing to support.

Hence I was trying to find an explanation for the screen shot posted, 
which says "console [tty0] enabled" even though the macfb console did not 
appear.

...
Besides, if multi_defconfig has it as "n"...

That should be OK; all of my test kernel configs also disable these 
options.
