The point is that you _can_ build a customized sendmail configuration file in Solaris 7 with the base OS distribution, which is much more common than wanting to build a customized binary. We're using the stock FreeBSD sendmail binary, but needed to change various things in the configuration file to suit the needs of the mail system we're running. Updating from FreeBSD 3.2 to 4.0 stomped on that customized configuration, without any warning that was apparent to us, and we didn't find out until one of the other admins noticed that it was no longer building the proper alias databases. Fortunately I had insisted on keeping around my own copy of the sendmail 8.9.3 distribution with our customized .mc template in it, so I could quickly rebuild and install the .cf we wanted.
