>From what I understand while reading your bugreport, this is not a netfilter
issue.  If you have applications (or your routing/...) configured in a way that
reply packets are sent from a different IP than the original request packets had
been sent to, there is _no way_ that conntrack will catch this.

In fact, I think even most clients will not work - since they expect a reply
from the address that they've sent something to. (depending on whether they
use
connect(2) on a SOCK_DGRAM socket).

Please reopen this bug if you think that I misunderstood your problem.
