How does (did?) "Move to SD" work?

I know that it has been disabled on some of the more recent versions, but I am dealing with older phones right now.

When you move an app from phone to SD ... just where does it go? (e.g. a specific folder?)

If an app is moved to SD, and you swap that SD card into another phone ... does the new phone pick it up? i.e. is it as simple as the execution path on linux -- if it's there, it can be found and run? or does it have to be registered by the new phone somehow?
