As Brian already pointed out, you need to enable multicast routing.
You also need a multicast routing daemon to perform the actual
forwarding. mrouted(8) will do for simple purposes. I haven't
tried dvmrpd(8).

However, the first thing you want to check is the TTL of these mdns
packets. I suspect it's 1 and they are intended as local broadcasts,
not as routable traffic.
