on the SGI /os provides a link from usr/lib/sendmail.cf to
etc/sendmail.cf which is propogated to local disk, so we are ok there.
Is there any reasona not to just change sendmail.cf to point to
/etc/sendmail.hf on all platforms tho?

We might want to do somethign about O StatusFile=/usr/lib/sendmail.st
too.  Thoughts?

Greg, can you add /etc/sendmail.fc to DEADFILES in 8.3.8 for the SGI
(it's a frozen config file which we don't deal with anymore).
