This line works, try it:
iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner mldonkey -p tcp --dport 4001 
-j MARK --set-mark 101

The marking doesn't realy help you though. You will want to use
connmark to mark this and all further packets of a connections
(including incoming). But that needs patching the kernel.
