RE: [NSIS] NATFW NSLP support for NAT-PT (IPv4 to IPv6 translation)

hi,

i think this is a question of what is the current deployment. 

if NAT-PT is currently seriously deployed to any extent, we 
have to deal with it. however, dealing with it may simply mean 
detecting and returning an error condition.

if NAT-PT is not currently seriously deployed, then we can
probably forget about it.
