------- Additional Comments From netfilter at linuxace.com  2006-05-13 19:17 MET -------
This is by design, and is due to commit bc6e14b6f0b06fe93d809d22e257ddd275feeda9
in 2.6.16 with this description:

[NETFILTER]: Fix NAT PMTUD problems

    ICMP errors are only SNATed when their source matches the source of the
    connection they are related to, otherwise the source address is not
    changed. This creates problems with ICMP frag. required messages
    originating from a router behind the NAT, if private IPs are used the
    packet has a good change of getting dropped on the path to its destination.

    Always NAT ICMP errors similar to the original connection.

closing -- not a bug.
