andy-

there is an interface option with gmetric to make sure it multicasts on 
the correct interface.

# gmetric -i eth2 ...
# gmetric --mcast_if eth2 ...

that will ensure that gmetric communicates with the gmond's listening on 
crazy interfaces.  let me know if that solves the problem.

good luck
