Your rules are working as expected on my box:
[root@pim kay]# ls -la /udev/tty*
crw------- 1 root root 5, 0 Jun 12 14:09 /udev/tty
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jun 12 14:09 /udev/tty0 -> vc/0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jun 12 14:09 /udev/tty1 -> vc/1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jun 12 14:09 /udev/tty2 -> vc/2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jun 12 14:09 /udev/tty3 -> vc/3

Are you sure your rules file matches the configured one in udev.conf?
By default, udev reads all files in /etc/udev/rules.d/ ending with
"*.rules".
Please try udevtest:
[root@pim kay]# /usr/bin/udevtest /sys/class/tty/tty9
version 026
looking at '/class/tty/tty9'
configured rule in '/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules' at line 1 applied, added symlink '%k'
configured rule in '/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules' at line 1 applied, 'tty9' becomes 'vc/%n'
creating device node '/udev/vc/9', major = '4', minor = '9', mode = '020600', uid = '0', gid = '0'
[root@pim kay]# /usr/bin/udevtest /sys/class/tty/tty10
version 026
looking at '/class/tty/tty10'
configured rule in '/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules' at line 2 applied, 'tty10' is ignored
If this doesn't help, please build udev with "make DEBUG=true" and look
at the syslog, how your rules are processed.
Good luck,
Kay
