Sun provided a feature allowing the end user to choose the behavior they wanted when UNIX System V was merged into its earlier BSD-based source tree. I am not aware of any other systems other than later AT&T releases of UNIX System V and SunOS/Solaris systems that provided the ability to use the set-GID bit on a directory to allow the user to choose the desired behavior, but it is certainly possible that some others do.
