How comfrotable are you with compiling source from experimental
branches?  I have a branch that would make this easy: place a generic
NPN symbol and a generic PNP symbol, then assign the two to a
component that knows that it needs both.  You only need a
part-specific symbol for the component which you can keep on a
separate sheet (it's graphically uninteresting - it contains only the
function->pinnumber mapping and would have no connections of its own
in this case).

Otherwise just follow Kai-Martin's advice.  You'll have to create
part-specific NPN and PNP symbols though, to get the right pinnumbers.
