I just tried to build a test library just like that and it creates
symlinks on NetBSD 6.1.5 with pkgsrc 2014Q3.
The makefile that I used looks like this.

Makefile begin ---------------------------------------------------------
MKSTATICLIB = yes
MKDEBUGLIB = no
MKPICINSTALL = no
MKPROFILE = no
MKLINT = no

SHLIB_MAJOR = 1
SHLIB_MINOR = 6
SHLIB_TEENY = 2

LIB = test
SRCS = test.c
INCS = test.h

LIBDIR = ${PREFIX}/lib
INCSDIR = ${PREFIX}/include

.include <bsd.lib.mk>
Makefile ends ----------------------------------------------------------

How does this one compare to the makefile you are using?
