I am not aware of any such option. If you mean,

  IPFIREWALL_FORWARD

This person does not need it. He does not have any 'fwd' ipfw(8)

No, you don't need to compile in extra options for that
functionality.

To do NAT, these,

  options IPFIREWALL
  options IPDIVERT

Options are required. See natd(8).
