Considering the same author wrote the divert(4) code for ipfw, which has 
led to Charles Mott's aliasing code being turned into a divert(4)-using 
natd, I think this was Archie's intention.  Whistle wrote a natd 
themselves for the Interjet, but only released divert(4) and mpd of the 
Interjet, not the natd. (I'm sure Julian or Archie will correct me if I'm 
wrong).
