This patch is against 8.8.2, not 8.7.6.  You need to upgrade to 8.8;
8.7.x is no long supported.

: Hello!
: 
: May be I am missing something,
: but I was not able to compile the patched version
: of the sendmail 8.7.6.4,
: as it appears in FreeBSD distribution (sup.freebsd.org).
: 
: main.o: Undefined symbol `_vendor_daemon_setup' referenced from text segment
: *** Error code 1
: 
: 
: Is it a problem due to the version of FreeBSD ?
: I tried it on 2.1.5-stable and 2.1.5-release; -
: results were the same.
: 
: Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
