I also had this problem on sendmail 8.12.10. After changing the locking to posix, the problem was gone. So, although the docs state that the locking problem occurs only from 8.13 on, it seems that also some 8.12 versions are affected. Please set the locking mechanism to "posix" and see if it solves your problem.
