I am doing exactly that. Here's my rules:
#ipnat -l
List of active MAP/Redirect filters:
map tun0 10.8.0.0/24  -> 0.0.0.0/32  proxy port ftp ftp/tcp
map tun0 10.8.0.0/24  -> 0.0.0.0/32 

As I said before, it (the firewall) just doesn't seem to know what to
do with the packets when it gets them back through vx0.

Someone here at work told me it might work to create a loopback
interface and forward all the packets through that. (I'm assuming he
means xl0 -> lo0 -> tun0 and vx0 -> lo0 -> xl0.)  He couldn't tell me
how exactly to do that, though. 

I don't suppose any of this prompts any further suggestions? :-)
