You need to escape the quotation marks: like they do on the page, plus,
if you notice, t ccargs has a ' ' surrounding it.

make makefiles CCARGS='-DUSE_SASL_AUTH -DDEF_SERVER_SASL_TYPE=\"dovecot\"'

also, per the notes :

Notes:

    *

      The "-DDEF_SERVER_SASL_TYPE" stuff is not necessary; it just makes
      Postfix configuration a little more convenient because you don't
      have to specify the SASL plug-in type in the Postfix main.cf
      <http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html> file.
