I'm probably misreading this as I'm only just starting to look at the jail facilities but are you saying symlinks from inside a jail to outside it work within the jail? Doesn't that defeat the entire point? Or are you saying /usr/local is e.g. a symlink to /local and you have a different /local per jail and one for the host as well?
