wakeup on lan enable without compiling as module

Hello,
I would like to build the 3c59x vortex module into the kernel (not as
module) but don't loose the ability to use wakeup-on-lan. Because it
seems to be impossible to specify 'module parameters' to a built-in
kernel module I tried the following patch, which doesn't work for me.
Could someone enlighten me how I can get the expected behaviour?

Thanks,
	Thomas

[PATCH] Try to enable wakeup-on-lan per default. (doesn't work)
