You're talking about doing the compilation step as shown in section
20.9.4 of the handbook:
4 Recompile sendmail by executing the following commands:
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail
# make cleandir
# make obj
# make
# make install
The compile of sendmail should not have any problems if /usr/src
has not been changed extensively and the shared libraries it needs
are available.
There's an implicit assumption there that you've previously done a
'make buildworld' and you have a complete set of object files and so
forth under /usr/obj. As it is, your compilation fails because there
are some other parts of the source that need to be compiled before you
can do this part.

In your case, instead of compiling as shown in that section, try
rebuilding the whole world. That's going to be time consuming but
it's the easiest and most certain way to get a successful result:
# cd /usr/src
# make buildworld
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail
# make install
Carry out all of the other steps as shown in the Handbook.
Cheers,
Matthew
