I see, so this is a circular dependency problem here. The service
depends on this package, but the test depends on the service. Am I
right?

Hmmm, it is more of a style thing. You can ask how others think about
it.

Yes, I am a different Alex :)
Also, it seems we are not being consistent here, sometimes we put `#t'
after `substitute*', sometimes we don't. Anyone has an idea?

You are right. The following should chain things up correctly:
(and (zero? (system* "sh" "Build"))
(with-directory-excursion "cf/cf"
(begin
(copy-file "generic-linux.mc" "sendmail.mc")
(zero? (system* "sh" "Build" "sendmail.cf")))))
