One other possibility, given that you don't have the problem on
the same box runninng i386 code, could be related to the GCC
compiler bug that I reported in relation to
ports/sysutils/ucspi-tcp recently.  The system default CFLAGS
is -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing, which seems to allow a bug in the
system gcc version 3.4.  Changing -O2 to -O in CFLAGS, or
changing CC from cc to gcc41 (installed from ports) both solved
that problem.  Maybe it will help sendmail too?

(I don't build or run sendmail myself, so I'm not going to test
this theory...)

Cheers,
