My compilation problem below is solved, was sort of a false alarm, see
explanation.

I received replies from Tom Smith and Felix Maurer telling that compilation on
DU3.2 should be OK, and a very useful hint by Irene A. Shilikhina (Irina,
blagodarju Vas ocen' mnogo ! bolshoe spasibo !) who pointed out the following
in the src/README
Solaris 2.5.1 patch 103663-01 installs a new
/usr/include/resolv.h file that defines the __P macro
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[to overcome] you can create a resolv.h
file in the obj.SunOS.5.5.1.* or obj.SunOS.5.6.* directory that reads:
#undef __P
#include "/usr/include/resolv.h"
The facts were two :
(1) you cannot effectively create a .h file in obj.<operatingsystem>
since the Build procedure soft links everything from ../ (src)
(2) I had the above resolv.h in src, which is NOT PART of the sendmail
distribution, but was created by my colleagues who did the compilation
on solaris, and they left it around !!
As soon as I removed (renamed) it compilation on DU went smoothly.
To summarize : sendmail 8.9 native distribution compiles OK (even) on DU 3.2
