The 7.0 PIX code supports forwarding VPN traffic out the same interface that
it arrived on, spoke -to -spoke routing. It also supports split-tunneling by
forwarding clear-text traffic out the Internet after applying firewall
rules.
I think the command is something like same-security-interface
intra-interface. I haven't configured it yet. I expect to receive a couple
ASAs in the next couple weeks and am looking forward to testing this.

That's pretty much what I read. I thought they may have provided a fix by
now. As for the workarounds, this is for a business partner network and
I've already presented them with the "spend" option and they don't want to.
Another reply I got here from Simon expressed the possibility that PIX 7.x
supports this. (split horizon?)
Anybody?

The short answer is yes. PIX-fu rule #1: the PIX is not a router. It can't
take traffic that arrives on one interface and pass it back out that same
interface, even when the traffic arrives via VPN tunnel. That said, you can
sort of solve this problem by having the clients use a proxy server while
connected via full tunnel. There may or may not be an elegant way to
automate this for your road warriors, but this would really be independent
of anything the PIX or VPN client do. (Think login scripts, Group Policy,
etc.)
If it's a big enough issue that you're willing to spend time and resources
on it, I would recommend looking at the VPN3K concentrators (or ASA 5500?).
They can do exactly what you're asking for, plus they possess a number of
other features for managing VPN client users that the PIX doesn't have.
(Like dynamic VPN profile assignment via RADIUS.)
