Nevermind. It appears I was an idiot.
make print-PLIST did not include the symlinks, as they were not newer
than work/.install_done. When touch(1)ing the files, the symlinks
themselves did not get touch(1)ed. After using
make install
find /usr/pkg/<dir>/ -exec touch -h {} \;
make print-PLIST generated the proper list.
