Your problem is that if you give a GW on a device, then the "dev" clause in
route add will be ignored. You need to add a route to your gateway through
the apropirate virtual device first.

I am not aware of any problems in setting up a route to a virtuel interface
in any of the net tools versions i have maintained. Therefore an upgrade
wont help u in that case. route is not doing much, it only copies the name
of the device into the structure which is handed to the kernel.
