I got this a while back as well, and decided to rewrite that part of my termrc/cpurc:

        disk=''
        for(d in /dev/sd??)
                if(~ $disk '')
                        if(test -f $d/swap)
                                disk=`{ls /dev/sd*/swap >[2]/dev/null | sed 1q | sed 's!swap$!!'}
        if(! ~ $disk '')
                swap $disk^swap >/dev/null >[2=1]
