take a look in your source directory 
/usr/src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf
CVS
Makefile
boat-anchor.mc
chimera.mc
ihack.net.mc
minbar.mc
netbsd-proto-IPv4only.mc
netbsd-proto.mc
obj
sun-lamp.mc
zhadum.mc

I think you can probably get the specific file from a netbsd.org
website or ftp site also, if you don't have the source tree.
