I don't know.
You have local modifications? That is not a RELENG_4_7 source tree?
Perhaps
% cd /usr/src && cvs diff -c -r RELENG_4_7_0_RELEASE contrib/sendmail
will give a clue (although you must restore the `.orig' files left
over from the previous patching attempt).

No, I don't think you should have any confidence that things are OK.
