You might be able to do to a "make PREFIX=/usr" and see whether that gets you 
the right path.  You can also tell the system to recompile sendmail against the 
SASL library so that a "make buildworld/installworld" won't overwrite this.

Change /etc/make.conf to add something like this:

#SENDMAIL_CFLAGS+=   -I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2
#SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS+=  -L/usr/local/lib
#SENDMAIL_LDADD+=    -lsasl2
