With a netmask of 0xfffffffe I take it.

So how does phoenix get to 206.25.171.68 ?
What you want on phoenix is
ifconfig ed0 inet 206.25.171.181 netmask 0xfffffffe alias
route add 206.25.171.181 localhost
route add default 206.25.171.180
and on inetgw
ifconfig ed0 inet 206.25.171.180 netmask 0xfffffffe alias
route add 206.25.181.180 localhost
Assuming you've got forwarding turned on on inetgw and that your ISP is
routing packets for both machines, things should be ok.
