Yes, they should. These come from cases like (from
lib/ncurses/ncurses/Makefile):

.if ${MK_INSTALLLIB} != "no"
SYMLINKS+=      libncurses${LIB_SUFFIX}.a ${LIBDIR}/libcurses${LIB_SUFFIX}.a
SYMLINKS+=      libncurses${LIB_SUFFIX}.a ${LIBDIR}/libtermcap${LIB_SUFFIX}.a
SYMLINKS+=      libncurses${LIB_SUFFIX}.a ${LIBDIR}/libtermlib${LIB_SUFFIX}.a
SYMLINKS+=      libncurses${LIB_SUFFIX}.a ${LIBDIR}/libtinfo${LIB_SUFFIX}.a
.endif

We don't currently have a way to tag symlinks as belonging to -dev.
