If you're on 5.x then the default make.conf file has moved to
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf -- it was moved because unlike the
other files in /etc/defaults, /etc/defaults/make.conf didn't actually
set any defaults. Essentially the default state for /etc/make.conf is
obtained using an empty file. /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has
no active effect during the build{world,kernel} process, and only
serves to illustrate the sorts of thing you can set in that file.
The problem that you're seeing with make being unable to find
freebsd.mc probably means that you are missing
/usr/src/etc/sendmail/freebsd.mc. This file is definitely present in
the FreeBSD CVS repository and a version is clearly tagged as
belonging to the RELENG_5_1 branch:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/sendmail/freebsd.mc?only_with_tag=RELENG_5_1
This suggests that something went wrong when you tried running
cvsup(1) -- double check your supfile and try re-running cvsup (You
wrote 'releng_5_1' in your message: this won't work in a supfile,
since the tag is case sensitive and has to be given precisely as
'RELENG_5_1'). There should not be any error messages emitted during
the cvsup(1) run.
Cheers,
Matthew
