Why does it need a new configuration?  I would imagine that the
default (with no configuration file change) should be to listen on all
the supported socket types, and those that just want to listen on a
subset of them can add an option that does that.

Assuming we can make sendmail do the right thing without requiring any
configuration file syntax changes (that might later be changed again
by the sendmail.{org,com}-people), I would suggest fixing the NetBSD
source while waiting for a new sendmail release.

Can you give us a pointer to your patch?
