For the record and for the sake of historical accuracy, I checked the 
installation floppies for both upgrade and nonupgrade versions of MS-DOS 
6.22, as well as full installers all the way down to 5.0 - 5.0 was the 
last version to include exe2bin on the install floppies.

IBM actually kept it longer - exe2bin wasn't removed from their install 
floppies until 7.0 (6.1 and 6.3 both have it, and it's not even 
compressed!)
