That looks like the client send a SYN, the server sent three
SYN/ACKs that never reached the client and the client retransmits
its SYN. The SYN should still be NATed, but conntrack thinks
its out of sync because its already in SYN_RECV state, while the
client is apparently still in SYN_SENT state.

Looking back at your first mail:

This looks like a chicken-and-egg problem. You mark packets based
on the output device, but use the mark to direct them to the output
device.

I guess if you use the source IP for routing table selection it
will work. Not sure why it works at all currently.
