You can drop in the tar file to /usr/src/contrib/sendmail as long as you make the changes outlined in /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/FREEBSD-upgrade. However, you will lose the FreeBSD specific changes. If you don't use smrsh or the mail.local nofsync or nobiff options, then it won't be much of a problem. All in all however, I would probably just untar it and build/install it using the packaged build system that comes with the distribution or wait until Monday and cvsup.
