--- Comment #2 from lutz@donnerhacke.de ---
It seems that the problems still exists:
(Articles in German)
https://lutz.donnerhacke.de/Blog/Performance-Probleme-mit-NAT
https://lutz.donnerhacke.de/Blog/Wenn-der-Traceroute-Kreise-tanzt

It's a variant of the LAND attack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAND.

My solution is to use ipfw (which is used to activate NAT) to drop incoming
packets sourced from the public NAT IP. So simple antispoofing.
