I suspect there was a miscommunication here: if I understand
correctly, Ben was looking for a simple sequence of steps and, for
each step, a routing table from after that step.  This would help him
to understand what was happening when you ran into this problem.
Perhaps he could run similar steps in a similar setup and compare, to
track down where the problem lies.

See http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html for more
context.

Thanks for your patience, and hope that helps.
Jonathan
