In reply to TheBigFactHunt:
It could be leaking but maybe it was just sweat!
I've got a marmot isotherm (alpha insulation with pertex quantum gl outer) the outer can get quite wet under a shell from perspiration which it transports really well. The inside of the jacket feels quite dry to the touch. I'd say it's likely that if the jacket was a bit iced up the breathability would be reduced making it even more likely to wet the outside of your alpha jacket.
Also I'd guess by having a shell over the jacket in freezing conditions would move the dew point somwhere between the outer of the alpha jacket and the inside of your shell...just about where you found the wetness.
Re: breathability...ice isn't breathable so iced up or wet out no material will breath irrespective of how it can work optimally.
My legs seldom seem to get as damp as my body...luckily.
I'm not an expert by any means tho but it sounds plausible that it's just condensation....of course checking for a leak under the shower would be a great start to ruling out a leak.
Good luck and let us know the outcome!
