it might be possible for you to achieve what you describe using existing
lcr module by having only one gw per group and then assign priorities in
lcr table in such a way that for prefix +xx highest priority is gw group
1 of the cheapest carrier, then gw group 1 of second cheapest carrier,
then gw group 2 of cheapest carrier and finally gw group 2 of second
cheapest carrier (assuming two carriers serving +xx).
