Could you please explain, why this #ifdef is required?

I'm going to remove this #ifdef because it was added together with nfct check.

Also I believe you are wrong with dependencies:
NF_CONNTRACK_IPV4 forces NF_DEFRAG_IPV4, not vice versa

net/ipv4/netfilter/Kconfig
config NF_DEFRAG_IPV4
        tristate
        default n

config NF_CONNTRACK_IPV4
        tristate "IPv4 connection tracking support (required for NAT)"
        depends on NF_CONNTRACK
        default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
        select NF_DEFRAG_IPV4
