All my addressing for this problem are public addresses.  For discussion 
we will use 65.65.65.0/29 as the network mask for Interface Int.

My gateway's address is 65.65.65.1

There are two internal firewalls on this network, 65.65.56.2 and 
65.65.65.3, both have their default route set as 65.65.65.1.  Both 
internal firewalls can get out on the net and can access the gateway.  
Neither can access the other.  What the gateway needs to do is respond 
with ICMP redirect messages for any datagram it receives from one 
internal firewall for the other (or any of the address ranges behind 
each firewall.

What do I do to get ICMP redirects working?

Here are my files:

zones:

fw      firewall
Int     ipv4                            #
Ext     ipv4                            #


policy:

all     fw     DROP    info
fw      all    DROP    info
Int     Ext    ACCEPT
Ext     Int    ACCEPT

rules:

ACCEPT  all     all     icmp
ACCEPT  all     fw      tcp     724
ACCEPT  all     fw      tcp     10000
ACCEPT  Int     fw      tcp     5902:5903
ACCEPT  Ext     fw      tcp     5902:5903


I would think that first rule would allow for ICMP redirects.

BTW, I do NOT want to run an internal routing protocol on this net, 
static routes have always worked in the past (my speedstream did the 
redirects when it functioned as the gateway).
