Without seeing at least the addresses, netmasks, etc. you're trying to use,
or your full code, better both, nobody can guess what might be wrong.

e.g., without tricks you can't clone a route (for the ARP entry) when the
address you're trying to put in there falls outside of the route entry for
the interface.

For your special problem, you should look at

a) what pppd does under the proxyarp option
b) the kernel code that is invoked by that
