It is not unusual to have instruments double some vocal parts and the
slurs might be a playing instruction for them.
It is strange that in the last example the slur is present only in one
of two parallel voices. Looks almost like a "I can just hear how the
honorable Mrs Staccatalto is going to mangle her part, so let's put a
slur just into the part she is going to sing on opening night" slur.
