I can't speak to the validity of the technique that you're attempting to
use, however the 'dnl' directive is an instruction to ignore the rest of
the line (c.f. '#' in shell scripts, etc., in fact I believe 'dnl' is a
mnemonic for something like "delete to newline" or "discard to
newline").
In which case these are probably intended to be:
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5
LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
FEATURE(`authinfo',`hash /etc/mail/auth/client-info')dnl
dnl Set port
define(`RELAY_MAILER_ARGS', `IPC $h 587')dnl
