 I will investigate the specifics in MIMEDefang further, but according to
 the output of MIMEDefang's 'configure' script in v2.84:

 {{{
 checking for libmilter/mfapi.h... /opt/local/include/libmilter/mfapi.h
 checking for libmilter.a... no
 checking for libsm.a... no
 checking for libmilter.so... /opt/local/lib//libmilter.so
 checking whether libmilter requires -lsm... yes
 }}}
 (Note that because MIMEDefang expects shared libraries to have .so
 extensions, so I've symlinked /opt/local/lib/libmilter.so to
 /opt/local/lib/libmilter.dyld)

 The result of that is the addition of '-lsm' to the $LIBS flags used in
 the final link, which fails unless I manually copy libsm.a from the
 obj.<foo> directory of the libmilter port's build directory .
 From looking at config.log, I suspect that the configure script is making
 a wrong interpretation of an error in its test:

 {{{
 configure:6220: checking whether libmilter requires -lsm
 configure:6234: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   -L/opt/local/lib conftest.c
 -lpthread -lresolv  -lmilter >&5
 conftest.c:40:10: fatal error: 'libmilter/mfapi.h' file not found
 #include "libmilter/mfapi.h"
          ^
 1 error generated.
 }}}

 I will consult with Dianne regarding this, as she's the only person
 intimately familiar with the C and autoconf portions of MIMEDefang.
