I would be more than happy to avoid this ancient method of policy routing. Indeed, I was trying to get MARK to work together with iproute2 to select my output routes and wasn't working, hence I figured I would try something different (see my msg titled Need help understanding how to debug packet traversal) and see if my logic was at least right. I seem to be having a lot of difficulty "seeing" what my packet is doing via iptables/iproute2. Sure enough, I did a quick search for a *.ROUTE.so module and couldn't find anything on my system. Okay - back to the drawing board then....
