I looked into this for somebody a while back, and I don't think it's
possible in the current kernel. The IP forwarding code that figures
out which IP address to pass to the masq routines as the masq address
chooses the first address associated with the interface, thus losing
the information provided by the routing code.
I have not looked into changing this behavior, so I have no idea how
extensive a project it would be.

Efficiency can magnify good, but it magnifies evil just as well.
So, we should not be surprised to find that modern electronic
communication magnifies stupidity as *efficiently* as it magnifies
intelligence.
