As part of the release process.  It's a bit tricky. :)  In current sysinstall
has moved to src/usr.sbin/sysinstall and lives in /usr/sbin/sysinstall since
it's just another program.  /stand is basically copied off the boot floppy or
CD during the installation process.  It's meant to basically be a safety net
in case you hose your filesystem so badly you don't have /bin/sh, etc.
