This topic was discussed last January - should libalias be renamed to 
libnat ?

As of a few days ago, ppp(8) supports the -nat flag (as well as 
the -alias flag for backwards compatibility), however, it's not 
clear that we really want to go the whole hog and change the 
library name & interface too.

If it's changed, things will make more sense IMHO, however it'll make 
life difficult for applications that already use libalias (if the 
change is made, do we need a libalias library with stubs into 
libnat ?)

Votes ?

Silence == no change.
