This is the output for my jail interface. Notice that your jail
aliases are broadcasting on the jail's IP. I don't know if this is an
issue or not (my jails run on i386 FBSD 6.3), but it's something to
look at. How are you setting the aliases?

sk0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
     options=b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>
     inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
     inet 10.0.0.101 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
     inet 10.0.0.201 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
     ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
     media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex,flag0,flag1>)
     status: active
