Looks like it might have the schg flag set. Do ``ls -lo'' and look
at the colomn to the left of the date. I could chmod that file,
but not /kernel as it has the schg (immutable) flag set.

marder-1# ls -lo libcipher*
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  - 6148 Feb 15  1999 libcipher.a
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  -   14 Apr 14 01:25 libcipher.so -> libcipher.so.2
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  - 7192 Feb 15  1999 libcipher.so.2
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  - 7338 Feb 15  1999 libcipher_p.a
marder-1# chmod 777 libcipher.so.2
marder-1# !ls 
ls -lo libcipher*
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  - 6148 Feb 15  1999 libcipher.a
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  -   14 Apr 14 01:25 libcipher.so -> libcipher.so.2
-rwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  - 7192 Feb 15  1999 libcipher.so.2
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  - 7338 Feb 15  1999 libcipher_p.a
marder-1# chmod 444 libcipher.so.2
marder-1# cd /
marder-1# ls -lo kernel
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  schg 1665191 Jun 30 00:59 kernel
marder-1# chmod 755 kernel
chmod: kernel: Operation not permitted
