Here is the description of the issue, that I was able to reproduce.

A bandwidth based router was setup to push data based on bandwidth to various
daemons on the same machine.  The modules used are "limit", "mark" and
"redirect"

The logic at the mangle tables is to mark packets at 100 pkt per second with
mark "02" 
the next 100 pkts per second with mark "03"

the logic at the NAT table to REDIRECT these packets to port 515, 516 and so on
respectively.

Here is what my iptables looks like

When I push events that exceed the first 100 pkts/sec ount, the marking happens
properly but the "NAT" table does not read the marked packets properly.  Here
is a packet counts to show this behavior.
