How Can we tell Solaris OS is running 32-bit or 64-bit?

If I use the command: isalist

the result I get is

sparcv9+vis sparcv9 sparcv8plus+vis sparcv8plus sparcv8 sparcv8-fsmuld sparcv7 s
parc

is it 32 bits or 64 bits?

isainfo(1)

e.g.
    $ isainfo -b
    64

(strange isalist doesn't document isainfo in the SEE ALSO)

Presumably because isalist(1) is older (it was in 2.6, maybe even 2.5.1)
and no-one ever got around to changing its SEE ALSO list after isainfo(1)
arrived in Solaris 7.
