You can also update the copy of sysinstall on the media using the
crunchgen'd binary:

cd /usr/src/head/release
crunchgen i386/boot_crunch.conf
make -f boot_crunch.mk

For some reason ppp and camcontrol failed to link on my machine, so I
removed them from boot_crunch.conf.

I use a simple script to update it on the install media:

gunzip mfsroot.gz
mdconfig -a -f mfsroot
mount /dev/md0 /mnt
cp /usr/src/head/release/boot_crunch /mnt/stand
umount /mnt
mdconfig -d -u 0
gzip mfsroot
