I'll try to work out what the symlink behaviour is tomorrow. I'm not convinced
that skipping blessing is going to work in all cases - I'll take a look at the
OS X partitions to see whether they're blessed or not. It may be that there's
fallback code to run boot.efi in the absence of blessing, and in your case that
would potentially indicate that the blessing isn't happening at all - I could
believe that the bootloader wouldn't follow the symlink, but the bless code
does and would be picking up the inode of the target rather than the link
itself.

Could you do

dd if=/dev/sdwhatever bs=1 skip=$((0x400)) count=$((0x100)) | hexdump -C

on your /boot/efi partition and attach the output? And can you also check
whether having it be on FAT is sufficient to make Startup Drive recognise it?
