It seems that in the -STABLE has a (unnumbered) buggy version.
-CURRENT apparently has version 1.8.

The problem is that natd does not open the port specified (do
a 'netstat -an' after you start your natd) but chooses the "next"
one >1023.

This bug is mentioned in the change history of the latest-and-greatest
version under the comment "service port is a short, not a long".

Use 1.11 which you can get at

	ftp://ftp.suutari.iki.fi/pub/natd

I have filed a bug with send-pr, see

	http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=5802

It did work for me at 2.2.5-RELEASE but then stopped working with symptoms
like yours after I did a build of 2.2-stable in mid-November.
