But it lives by many names. (Ignoring the directories.)

Well, /stand/rm is not _really_ rm at all, but I get the point. I
guess the only question is whether to put it in /sbin or /usr/sbin. I
think /sbin makes sense (so it is bootable), but it is 1.6MB of
/-bloat... But from another thread about making 250MB the default /
size, I guess few care too much about that anymore.
