No, that's (usually) correct. But in the route excerpt you've cited
above (please post "route -n" next time!) the route for "localhost" was
set to "dev eth0". Also, the subnet was a /24 one, instead of the
usual /8 for localhost. So there's some inconsistency between that file
and the routes. The /etc/hosts you've shown looks good, please post
dnsmasq's config.
I will do that in the evening

Hm, OK, you're sure the tables were empty and Gentoo's iptables save
feature doesn't somehow get in your way? But anyway, the NAT/forwarding
can't work for the reason I mentioned (empty FORWARD chain and DROP
policy).
Yes i think they were empty, when i stop shorewall "iptables -L" just
gives me empty tables. Also i never used iptables directly.
