I think I have an answer to your problem.  "man glabel".

Backup all data first!

glabel label -v usr /dev/da1
            newfs /dev/label/usr
            mount /dev/label/usr /usr
            [...]
            umount /usr
            glabel stop usr
            glabel unload

I got that unload is unavailable but it everything worked for me.  Check 
the man page.  Hope this helps.
