Did you call truss with the -f switch to follow childs? In this case you can see the execve system call. Here it looks like this:

Code:
...
22307:  fork1()                                         = 22315
22307:  lwp_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) = 0xFFBFFEFF [0x0000FFFF]
22307:  llseek(6, 0, SEEK_CUR)                          = 0
22315:  fork1()         (returning as child ...)        = 22307
...
22315:  execve("/usr/lib/sendmail", 0x08084B40, 0x08047D00)  argc = 3
22315:      *** SGID: rgid/egid/sgid = 0 / 25 / 25  ***
22315:  resolvepath("/usr/lib/ld.so.1", "/lib/ld.so.1", 1023) = 12
