Where are the outer addresses?

It should look like this (at least I was able to get correct packets
out of it this way):

gre0: flags=b051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,LINK0,LINK1,MULTICAST> mtu 1476
        tunnel inet 62.48.0.50 --> 62.48.0.47
        inet 192.168.1.1 --> 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00

I get to this by configuring the following:

ifconfig gre0 create  # create gre0 interface
ifconfig gre0 tunnel 62.48.0.50 62.48.0.47  # outer addresses 
ifconfig gre0 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2  # inner addresses
ifconfig gre0 link1  # chose nexthop computation method
ifconfig gre0 up  # enable gre tunnel
