Along time ago, I wrote a number of drafts about ICMP messages:

PMTU messages:
      draft-richardson-ipsec-pmtu-discovery.txt
      http://www.sandelman.ca/SSW/ietf/draft-richardson-ipsec-pmtu-discovery-00.txt

more recent ideas (discussed with the re-chartered PMTUD group already):
      draft-richardson-ipsec-fragment-00.txt
      http://www.sandelman.ca/SSW/ietf/ipsec/fragment/draft-richardson-ipsec-fragment-00.txt
      
on other ICMP messages:
      http://www.sandelman.ca/SSW/ietf/ipsec-icmp-handle-v4-01.txt
and   http://www.sandelman.ca/SSW/ietf/ipsec-icmp-options-01.txt

Tero Kivinen asked me to repost references to them. 

The essential premise of the later documents it that an ICMP message 
such as a port-unreachable should be examined - the "quoted" IP packet 
examined, reversed (src<->dst address/ports) and an SA found for it.
