ok...
this was under slightly patched /usr/src/etc/sendmail/Makefile:
--- /usr/src/etc/sendmail/Makefile.orig Thu Apr 3 19:47:54 2003
+++ /usr/src/etc/sendmail/Makefile Thu Apr 3 21:18:23 2003

So, after some installworld's activity:
rm -f /etc/mail/vega.cf

Yes, this was attempt to 'make installworld' from NFS-mounted /usr/src and
/usr/obj. So, /usr/src/etc/sendmail/Makefile definitely should define
M4 as /usr/bin/m4.
