See Jack Holm's paper ... where he derives the spectral locus of a combination of a sensor's outputs and a subsequent matrix
I've read that paper when it was first published on the web ;) It doesn't define sensor gamut, or gamut of sensor outputs. To quote, "This paper reports on the observed characteristics of the capture color analysis gamuts resulting from a number of capture devices/media, and scene analysis color matrices." The result depends on the matrix. Strongly depends, as the paper itself demonstrates. That matrix defines the relation between the camera observer and colorimetric observer.

See Jack Holm's paper, which I posted above, where he derives the spectral locus of a combination of a sensor's outputs and a subsequent matrix: http://www.color.org/documents/CaptureColorAnalysisGamuts.pdf
Although he does not show the sensor outputs themselves, they have reached their extreme possible ratios when the stimulus is a single wavelength, and therefore a pseudo chromaticity chart could be plotted using the ratios of one channel to the sum of the three on one axis and a ratio of a second channel to the sum on the orthogonal axis. This chart would have a defined gamut of sensor values (inside the spectrum locus) but would not represent colors per se until processed through a matrix.
Holm shows the resulting chromaticities for multiple sensors and several reasonable matrices. He includes cases for motion picture negative film that clearly show a triangular gamut limit (spectral locus).

. The discussion has moved beyond the true but uninformative statement that cameras (sensors to be precise) do not have a color gamut , to considering how the gamut of sensor outputs
I would very much like a definition here. What is the gamut of sensor outputs?
And of course, how to measure it?
