It looks like you're trying to run the Linux version of Sendmail, and is looking for a Linux libc and finding a FreeBSD libc that was copied to /usr/lib. Try removing /usr/lib/libc.so.5.4.23 and make sure that /usr/compat/linux/lib/libc.so.5.4.23 is installed from the linux-lib-2.4 port. Also try rebuilding Sendmail on your FreeBSD machine.
