Scott: The last time I messed with it, booting from crypto softraid was not supported on macppc (only i386, amd64, and sparc64). The man page for softraid ( https://man.openbsd.org/softraid.4 ) seems to confirm that this is still the case.
It looks like the openbsd macppc loader simply does not support softraid volumes at this time. Most recently, when I was looking for something similar on an aluminum g4 powerbook, I ended up just doing an encrypted home slice, unlocked at boot from rc.local (for example, see http://astro-gr.org/openbsd-encrypt-home/ ).
