Hello David,
I tried and it seems i can reproduce it:
# Create test NS
root@host:~# ip netns add testns
# Create veth pair, veth0 in host, veth1 in NS
root@host:~# ip link add veth0 type veth peer name veth1
root@host:~# ip link set veth1 netns testns
# Configure veth1 (NS)
root@host:~# ip netns exec testns ip addr add 192.168.252.209/24 dev veth1
root@host:~# ip netns exec testns ip link set dev veth1 up
root@host:~# ip netns exec testns ip route add default via 192.168.252.100
root@host:~# ip netns exec testns ip route add 192.168.249.0/24
nexthop via 192.168.252.250 nexthop via 192.168.252.252
# Configure veth0 (host)
root@host:~# brctl addif vmbr2 veth0
root@host:~# ip link set veth0 up
# Tests

Please notice the above, 'ip route show cache' and 'ip route get'
return different nexthop for 192.168.249.134, i suspect that may be
part of the problem.
Thank you,
