If your mts.conf has a setting of "sendmail/smtp" or
"sendmail/pipe" for "mts", you can temporarily override that
via the -mts switch (you want smtp for the MTS).

What program do I use -mts with?  It is not a valid option for
send(1), at least with version 1.5:

     % send -draft -snoop -server smtp.gmail.com -port 587 -tls -sasl -user 
dnc2dnc
     send: -mts unknown

Because that's a 1.6 feature :-)

The allowed values for -mts are, without the quotes: "smtp",
"sendmail/smtp" (or "sendmail"), and "sendmail/pipe", per
mh-tailor(5).  You succeeded with the default of "smtp".  Ken was just
pointing out that because you had tailored your mts.conf to use
another setting, you can override that on the command line, with 1.6.

The default of "smtp" for the mts is coded in configure.  It sounds like
you're overriding that to be "sendmail".

Also, while I can specify a server in the /etc/nhm/mts.conf file,
I cannot specify a port.  Is there some way to do so without
needing to explicitly call send(1) with those options?  I couldn't
find anything I could use in ~/.mh_profile

This should work your profile:

    send: -draft -server smtp.gmail.com -port 587 -tls -sasl -user dnc2dnc

Or "-port submission".  And you could include -snoop, but I expect
that's just temporary so can be added on the command line.

As a quick check, after adding a send: line to your profile, it should
show up at the bottom of the output from "send -help".

Thanks for posting the details of how you got your direct submission
to gmail to work.  The setup is common to other providers as well.
