When DESTDIR is used, symlinks to the packages will be put in the build directory. This combines the convenience of a global package cache with the ease of having a package (i.e. a symlink) in the build directory for testing and installation purpose.
This seems really reasonable. It gets a +1 from me for the idea; I didn't test the code or anything though.

Since we repeat the same "${nameofpkg}-${pkgver}-${pkgrel}-${PKGARCH}${PKGEXT}" part three times, we should really pull that into a local variable and then set the three others as necessary.
On the gpg branch, there is (going to be...) a patch creating "tar_file" (=current pkg_file) and pkg_file (pkglinks_target here). I think we can get away with just those two varabiles... see below.

Will this work with err traps? I thought you need to be explicit with the if; then; fi blocks.
How about testing if $PKGDEST is the same as $startdir and then make the symlink using ln -s ${pkg_file} ${pkgfile/$PKGDEST/$startdir/}
