Tom, If I were in your shoes, I would try to use a bridge to tie eth4 and the external interface as the Berofix folks suggest. Either using BRIDGE0 or rc.elocal, as mentioned previously.
Personally, I have not tried anything similar to what your are doing. Save your current settings, and give the bridge technique a try.
