This is no official answer, but yes, basing on my nearly 20 years of 
experience with UFS, I've come to expect them.

Several times after some boxes of mine crashed, they kept crashing every 
day or every few days. Only solution is to reboot in single user mode, 
fsck the filesystems (notice, not "fsck -p") and restart.
I guess softupdates let something bad slip through and won't fix it at 
reboot.

Just my 2c.
