Hi,
Great to see natd maintained. As original author, I kind of miss
the long command line options (ie. something like
--daemon in addition to -d).
The new code seems to use always a select-recvfrom combination
to get the data. Someone complained to me about the old natd performance
when that was used (the old code does not always use it). However,
I must say that I'm not sure about how much it affects performance
(having two syscalls instead of one).
