Paul,

Check if you're still assigned the Primary Administrator profile by 
looking in /etc/user_attr. For example, here's my entry:
> bleonard at opensolaris:/etc/security$ cat /etc/user_attr  | grep bleonard
> bleonard::::type=normal;roles=root;profiles=Primary 
> Administrator;defaultpriv=basic,dtrace_user,dtrace_proc,dtrace_kernel
