ifneq ($(KBUILD_SRC),)
define symlink
        $(Q)mkdir -p $(dir $@)
        $(Q)ln -sn $(srctree)/$(dir $@)/$1 $(dir $@)$(patsubst .%,%,$(notdir $@))
        $(Q)touch $@
endef
else
define symlink
        $(Q)ln -sn $1 $(dir $@)$(patsubst .%,%,$(notdir $@))
        $(Q)touch $@
endef
endif

would do it, AFAICS.  Objections?
