I've come to the conclusion that policy-routing the 
GRE encapsulated Tunnel packets is not possible. 
Obviously, the GRE encapsulation happens at some place 
in the system where policy-routing doesn't have any 
impact. 
Other locally generated packets are policy-routed fine, 
that that it should work in principle - but not the 
GRE packets, although they have a source address that 
should be subject to policy-routing when leaving the 
system.

So, there's probably no other way than host-routing 
the Tunnel destionations via the appropriate gateway, 
as some people suggested...
