Dig it. OK. The problem I see is in routing on the Linux box. You want
to come into it (through the tunnel) and go back out (to the Internet)
through the same physical interface. There may be some routing
mumbo-jumbo that can occur here - possibly with lo - but I'm out of my
depth on this one. Somehow, packets coming in through its ipsec0 have to
then be forwarded out eth0. Hmmm, stream of conciousness here, can you
get two real IPs for this box on different nets, and setup the Linux box
to behave as a router or bridge? Setup ipsec0 to listen on one, and eth0
to listen on another? That *may* work...

Ok gurus, you can chime in at any point now...
