    This might be a matter of looking in the wrong place.
    
    For programs where there are both 32bit and 64bit versions, the
    program you see might be a stub that invokes the real program.
    For example, on 32-bit solaris 8, what is actually run is
    
    -r-xr-sr-x   1 root     sys        10740 Jan  5  2000 /usr/bin/sparcv7/ipcs
    
    That is sgid.
