 If sysinst can be used for something useful _after_ system installation,
 then we can move it to /usr/sbin or /sbin.  One possible such use case
 could be installing _and_ configuring of pkgsrc packages, e.g.
 installing a PostgreSQL server _and_ creating a database cluster and
 creating the DBA account.
