Just off the top of my head, things I would try would be

There is no easy switch to just make this happen that I'm aware
of. Therefore, I think you really only have two options.

1. You could try setting an :export property at the file header level
which specifies the name (and location) of the export file.

2. Change your setup and instead of having a file sym link, do a sym
link of the parent directory. Any files you then put into that directory
will appear under your .emacs.d as well as being put into the original
source directory.
