Have you looked OpenBSD with pf? You can create rules that map outbound

FreeBSD with IPF \ IPNAT [1] or PF as well.

You have a number of options but consider the long-term.

I guess you've already bought the second DSL line ? The cost of the lines ( and routers ) combined might not be far away from another type of carrier that may work with your future requirements. Look into bonding T1's.

If you don't already, it might help to start analyzing your traffic characteristics.
