 Taking a look at it reveals that ''gcc'' can't find the ''smutil'' library.  I took a guess and figured that ''smutil'' was probably "Sendmail Utilities".  The fix is next.
 ===== The Fix =====
+The fix for me was quite simple.  I just downloaded the source for Sendmail itself matching the version of ''libmilter'' that I had installed (in this case, it was 8.14.2).  Once I had it downloaded, I just built it and added ''libsmutil.a'' to to my lib directory, ''/usr/lib''.
+<code>
+# tar -xvzf sendmail.8.14.2.tar.gz
+# cd sendmail-8.14.2
+# ./Build
+# cp obj.Linux.2.6.19-gentoo-r5.i686/libsmutil/libsmutil.a /usr/lib
+</code>
+After that, I reran the install for Python Milter and it installed and worked without a hitch.
+Hope this helps someone else out there because the Python Milter library works really well.
