Specifying the gateway tells the routing protocols where to send packets not considered to be on one of the local subnets. The gateway address is not bound to any particular network card - it merely states where to send "external" packets.
I wanted xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (static) to be the IP of nic 0, and let it pick up the gateway automatically and hard set the gateway of eth1 to the static IP of eth0. No go. This doesn't mak esense - perhaps you could give examples with ip adresses, network adreses, netmasks, etc.
