My sincerest (and public) apologies to Alfred.
There is something pretty fundamental that I was missing -- this
problem is not restricted to just a softupdates filesystem filling
up, and if it's the root filesystem then there can be a crash. No,
this problem appears to be that if *any* softupdates filesystem fills
up, it can crash the system.
Now that I understand what it was I was missing, I'm much more
reluctant to use softupdates in general, at least until this problem
is fixed.
Thanks for understanding, and helping me to more clearly
understand the problem!

Unix is very user-friendly. It's just picky who its friends are.
