No.  It is set to JIFFIES because that is the setting required so that
all the CPUs in the kernel .config list work.  If you select 386 or 486
in 'make config', make bzImage will fail because the CPU does not
support a clock.  'cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep tsc' - if that would work in
a .h file - would return TRUE for CPUs that do support a clock. 
Otherwise, the Time Of Day clock (IRQ 8) or "jiffies" (IRQ 0) should be
used.

If anything should be reported, this is it.  It says to me that you
either didn't 'make clean ; make dep' or that the idedriver.c is poorly
written.  But, since you intend to change distros, why waste your time
on this?

You may want to have a look at my notes about building a 2.4.25 kernel. 
They are Slackware specific but they do describe most of the steps, in
order (but not in detail), I take.
