Yes, from my understanding of the problem, this problem cannot happen with IPs 
in the same local network.

you must add, before, a "route" command to say how to reach the host, like 
this:

route add -host 209.123.8.163 dev eth0
And after this, do
route add default gw 209.123.8.163

Normally this is not needed, because (to use very non-technical terms) when, 
for instance, the UML ip is 192.168.0.2, and the host IP is 192.168.0.1, 
since the addresses begin "the same way", Linux knows they are next to each 
other. Here, instead, when you do "add default gw", he does not know how to 
contact the default gw. Ah, ok, you know a bit more than I thought, so: the 
"route add -host..." is not needed when the gateway is in the same local 
network (but note that actually, there is a route for the local network which 
is always added, but it's added automagically).

I guess/hope that you have this problem only here because you have such IPs 
only here.
