As I have understood, the port space is shared between all interfaces and ip
addresses. So I don't see that we can solve this easily.

I for one masquerade outgoing multicast traffic sometimes. For me your hack
would not make sense, I think. Maybe a different port allocation logic? I have
tried to unify local ports+masquerade+ipautofw port usage in 2.0.x (I even had
a hack that worked in most situations) but I'm still not sure how to do it
correctly (without using a huge port table). Or maybe I should try with the
huge all-port table...
