Yes, it is included in GENERIC.  It was done last night, but I managed
to fat-finger the copy last night in the Usenix terminal room and
I managed to break cvsup.  (Sorry John.)

It should all be fixed now, and the copyright clauses MFC'ed to RELENG_3
and RELENG_4.

How and when we turn on softupdates on filesystems with tunefs or mount 
options is a different issue.  It no longer requires a recompile to do
so anymore though.

Cheers,
