natd(8) and NAT-PMP

My internal development network here uses a FreeBSD RELENG_6 machine  
to act as a NAT gateway for testing of NAT traversal software, am I'm  
certain that natd(8) supports uPnP, but does it support NAT-PMP? I  
don't want to have to purchase an Airport base station, as that's the  
only NAT box I am aware of that supports NAT-PMP to test some code  
for opening up the port mappings as specified by NAT-PMP's ietf draft.


In the case that natd(8) does not support NAT-PMP, has anybody  
started work on it? Or am I "more than welcome to" start working on a  
set of patches to add support ;)


Cheers
