FWIW: llvm in meta-oe has similar problem

python llvm_populate_packages() {
    libdir = bb.data.expand('${libdir}', d)
    libllvm_libdir = bb.data.expand('${libdir}/${LLVM_DIR}', d)
    split_dbg_packages = do_split_packages(d, libllvm_libdir+'/.debug', '^lib(.*)\.so$', 'libllvm${LLVM_RELEASE}-%s-dbg', 'Split debug package for %s', allow_dirs=True)
    split_packages = do_split_packages(d, libdir, '^lib(.*)\.so$', 'libllvm${LLVM_RELEASE}-%s', 'Split package for %s', allow_dirs=True, allow_links=True, recursive=True)
    split_staticdev_packages = do_split_packages(d, libllvm_libdir, '^lib(.*)\.a$', 'libllvm${LLVM_RELEASE}-%s-staticdev', 'Split staticdev package for %s', allow_dirs=True)   
    if split_packages:
        pn = d.getVar('PN', True)
        for package in split_packages:
            d.appendVar('INSANE_SKIP_' + package, ' dev-so')
        d.appendVar('RDEPENDS_' + pn, ' '+' '.join(split_packages))
        d.appendVar('RDEPENDS_' + pn + '-dbg', ' '+' '.join(split_dbg_packages))
        d.appendVar('RDEPENDS_' + pn + '-staticdev', ' '+' '.join(split_staticdev_packages))
}

PACKAGESPLITFUNCS_prepend = "llvm_populate_packages "

and now it fails with:

ERROR: QA Issue: non -dev/-dbg/-nativesdk package contains symlink .so: libllvm3.3-llvm-3.3 path '/work/armv5te-oe-linux-gnueabi/llvm3.3/3.3-r0/packages-split/libllvm3.3-llvm-3.3/usr/lib/libLLVM-3.3.so' [dev-so]
ERROR: QA run found fatal errors. Please consider fixing them.
ERROR: Function failed: do_package_qa
ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: /home/jenkins/oe/world/shr-core/tmp-eglibc/work/armv5te-oe-linux-gnueabi/llvm3.3/3.3-r0/temp/log.do_package_qa.21132
NOTE: recipe llvm3.3-3.3-r0: task do_package_qa: Failed

I'll look at solution for fsl and do the same for llvm (and also possibly merge all dbg and staticdev packages into one.
