Well, now that I tried it, it doesn't. It runs these commands, and
the ls shows what happens:

% fakeroot chmod g+s debian/maildrop/usr/bin/{lockmail.,}maildrop
% ls -l debian/maildrop/usr/bin/{lockmail.,}maildrop
-rwxr-sr-x 1 joy joy  10356 2006-09-17 11:01 
debian/maildrop/usr/bin/lockmail.maildrop
-rwxr-sr-x 1 joy joy 162132 2006-09-17 11:01 debian/maildrop/usr/bin/maildrop
% fakeroot dh_fixperms -pmaildrop -X lockmail.maildrop -X maildrop$
% ls -l debian/maildrop/usr/bin/{lockmail.,}maildrop
-rwxr-sr-x 1 joy joy  10356 2006-09-17 11:01 
debian/maildrop/usr/bin/lockmail.maildrop
-rwxr-xr-x 1 joy joy 162132 2006-09-17 11:01 debian/maildrop/usr/bin/maildrop

Notice how it continued to strip setgid from the file "maildrop",
whose name is supposed to match "maildrop$".

How is this supposed to work, again?
