In the sudo.SlackBuild permissions are set in the Makefile, also
after building ...

make $NUMJOBS || make || exit 1
make install DESTDIR=$PKG || exit 1

( cd $PKG/usr/bin
   chmod 4711 sudo
   ln -sf sudo sudoedit
...


This is NOT an example where the find-lines before the build do rescue 
the package any better than the chmod-oneliner.
