Add the following to your /etc/make.conf
SENDMAIL_CFLAGS= -UNETINET6
According to the GCC manual, -U is processed after all -D on the command
line, so even if it appears earlier than the -DNETINET6 on the command line
it should have the effect of undefining the macro.
Of course, that's a literal answer to the question you asked, and doesn't
imply that you should discount anything Gregory is saying, since when it
comes to sendmail, he's da man.
