Because it's not necessary.  When you see your shell prompt
again, you know that it's finished.  And if there's no error
message or exit code != 0, ithas finished successfully.

Also, historically the sendmail build is always the last
part of buildworld (and installworld), so it's easy to
recognize.

Best regards
