symlink creation from CLI (or API) in 7-mode?

Is there a way to create a symlink in 7-mode from the command line?   Am going to be connecting via ssh & keys, so don't want to go into the deep BSD environment.

Am hoping to give a file two names, so that I can do a rdfile using either.  Am trying to avoid having to mount this up over NFS. 

Admittedly, I haven't dug into the API. 

TIA,

Jim
