Very simple:

mw@theatre:/home/mw 558 $ mount
/dev/da0s1a on / (ufs, local, writes: sync 269 async 8156)
/dev/da0s1e on /usr (ufs, local, soft-updates, writes: sync 4 async 29130)
                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^
/dev/da0s1f on /home (ufs, local, soft-updates, writes: sync 474 async 35684)
                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^
(...)

On recompiling the kernel, did you check to set the necessary symbolic
links? You should run tunefs -n enable in singleuser mode on the file
system(s) you want softupdates enabled on, but it looks, you know that
already :-)
