Have you compiled your kernel with the following options?
|  options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD
|  options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD_EXTENDED

I found that this kind of forwarding silently failed until I enabled the
EXTENDED option in addition to the typical option.

`man ipfw' briefly mentions these two kernel options in the fwd section.
