You mean NAT table?  My guess was that it was bypassing the PREROUTING
chain.  I'm not sure that there's a way to force locally generated packets
to go through that.  Probably the solution would be to put a proxy like
rinetd or Apache mod_proxy to proxy 80 to 8080.  You can leave the NAT in
there since it is working for public packets (and would therefore leave the
remote IP unchanged for log-files), but the forward would pick up local
packets.
