Is sendmail accidently including varargs.h?  Or is it using va_list without
including <stdarg.h>?  The best way to check this is by editting those files
(as root) and adding a line   #warning "We get here!"   to them (or #error
in the case of <varargs.h> to the top.  Be sure to use the correct header
files, they should be in a directory like <prefix>/lib/gcc-lib/<triplet>/2.95.3/include/
