[1.] One line summary of the problem:
Strange network routing behaviour when routing locally generated packets
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
I encountered two linked weird behavior of the network paquet routing
process
when used in conjonction with iptables' MARK-ing capabilities.
First it's impossible for a local process to send packets to a
destination that is not
available appart from a routing table selected by a 'ip rule add fwmark'.
ping process reply 'Network Unreachable' for example.
I must say that all does not occur when routing packet generated from
another computer.
And second, which is somehow related, if there is an available route
entry for a destination
that will be MARK'ed by iptables and then routed using a special routing
table the
source ip address for the packet will be the source generated from the
first route entry
even if the second entry specify another output device and source ip.

problem (if possible)

PING 192.168.2.65 (192.168.2.65) 56(84) bytes of data.
--- 192.168.2.65 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms
at this point using a tcpdump icmp on host 192.168.1.65 show the following:
17:19:10.409085 IP 172.31.254.2 > 192.168.2.65: ICMP echo request, id
18957, seq 1, length 64
in other term the packet was correctly send to the wanted gateway but
using wrong
source ip address ( ip address derived from the default rule)
