Yes, that's how I did it, too. It works perfectly to tunnel 
each network segment seperately. Simple routing is not enough.

Don't forget to mention your tunneled networks in the FORWARD chain,
if your ipsec gateway is also your firewall.

I implemented the seperate tunnels via racoon and racoon-tool 
from latest Debian sarge. Connectivity to a Cisco PIX was possible that way.
